Ähpar, Mountain summit in Jokkmokk Municipality, Sweden
Ähpar rises within the Scandinavian Mountains at coordinates 67°20'4.06"N and 17°56'20.98"E, marking a notable elevation in the northern Swedish landscape.
The mountain stands as a silent witness to centuries of Sami activities, including traditional reindeer herding practices that continue in the present day.
Local Sami communities maintain strong connections to Ähpar, as evidenced by its multiple language variations: Ähpar in Swedish and Ähpártjåhkkå in Lule Sami.
Winter visitors to Ähpar should prepare for temperatures reaching -40°C, particularly during February when the Jokkmokk Market takes place in the surrounding area.
The mountain's position north of the Arctic Circle creates distinct seasonal phenomena, including periods of complete darkness in winter and midnight sun in summer.
