This live camera looks out over Kiruna, the northernmost town of Sweden's Arctic region. It is a quick way to check what conditions look like in this part of Lapland before planning a trip or simply keeping an eye on the northern sky.
Kiruna and its setting
Kiruna sits above the Arctic Circle in the province of Lapland, surrounded by birch forest, open tundra and the Kiruna mountains. The town grew around one of the largest iron ore mines in the world, and its mining heritage still shapes the skyline and daily life. Its altitude of about 536 metres means the air is crisp and the landscape feels wide and quiet, especially away from the town centre.
What to watch and when
Depending on the view, the stream may show streets, rooftops and the surrounding hills under changing light. Winter brings long nights and a chance to see the aurora when skies are clear, while the midnight sun dominates the summer months. Check the local time and weather on this page to judge whether the sky and visibility are likely to be good at the moment you watch.
Practical notes for visitors
Winters are long and very cold, with heavy snow, while summers are short, mild and bright. Kiruna is known as a base for northern lights tours, dog sledding and ice-hotel visits in the wider region. Nearby cameras on this site cover Björkliden, Riksgränsen and Narvik, which can help you compare conditions across the mountains.
