Sarektjåkkå is the second highest mountain in Sweden and the highest mountain in the Laponian area at 2, 089 metres AMSL. The mountain is located close to the Eastern border of Sarek National Park, about 23 kilometres south-west of Suorva. Not being easily accessible by any nearby roads, merely reaching it normally takes a day or more of backcountry hiking. Summiting can be done without climbing, but the route up is rather exposed.
