Vildmarksvägen (English: The Wilderness Road), locally known as Stekenjokkvägen after the mountain pass of Stekenjokk is a tourist road stretching from northern Jämtland to southern Lapland, Sweden.[1] It begins in Strömsund and ends in Vilhelmina. Part of the road is closed during winter at times because of heavy snow, which can reach up to 7 metres (23 ft).[2] In 2012, the Frostvikens Fjällpark was open in Gäddede as part of the Vildmarksvägen.[2] Vildmarksvägen also hosts the Bjurälven nature reserve.[2] Part of the road is above the tree line.
