Autumn view of Mt Tarrekaise seen across the Kvikkjokk Delta Kvikkjokk Laponia World Heritage Site Lapland Sweden


Mt Tarrekaise, on the edge of the Laponia World Heritage Area, is covered with its first light dusting of snow of the coming winter, while at its feet the forests of birch trees are cloaked in autumnal gold colours, here seen arranged along the shore of the Kvikkjokk Delta, a river system that drains Padjelanta National Park.
