This campsite is so far the best we have ever been to! The sanitary facilities are very new, there is a huge kitchen, sauna and new washing machines.

Large Campsite with Cabins

The site has many spaces for campers, with and without electricity. Friendly welcome at the reception. The service house is currently being rebuilt, the old one burned down. The temporary structure is simple, functional, and clean. The site is directly on the road, it could be a bit louder there. All in all, it's okay for one or two nights.

Unfortunately, the site was closed for motorhomes, caravans, and tents from 08.09.22 until further notice. Unfortunately, there is no information about this in the app!

Beautiful place, good location, sanitary facilities are clean. There was a sauna, at least for the gentlemen. The sauna was free, really great service. Nice location right by the water, the center was quickly accessible.

Detlef
Camping site closed in winter 2018, open for rental accommodations, the related hotel is located above with direct access to the ski area, after a prior phone inquiry we were offered a parking space at the hotel with electric hookup and free sanitary and sauna use, easy booking and confirmation via SMS and email, access with an ascent on the last 800 meters is feasible - even in winter, very nice reception, hotel is currently being renovated, the view from the mountain over the valley is spectacular, well-maintained ski area, overall highly recommendable - despite the renovation condition (which is only partially relevant for us campers.

Pleasant reception. The RV pitches are too close together (gravel). Sanitary facilities are outdated but clean. Good stopover place.

With 170SEK without electricity, it's probably one of the cheaper places in the country! And everything is included: showers, washing machine and dryer, and even the sauna!

Frequently asked questions about the campsite Camping Gällivare
What is the terrain like at Camping Gällivare and where can I pitch my tent?
You can expect flat meadow terrain right on the banks of the Vassaraälven river. If you are arriving with a tent, there is a real highlight: a dedicated tent meadow in the middle of a rustic, tall pine forest. Some of the pitches for caravans and motorhomes are gravelled.
What special amenities does the campsite offer for relaxation and comfort?
After an active day in Swedish Lapland, you can warm up wonderfully in the campsite's own sauna. There is also a modern service building with a huge communal kitchen, washing machines, and dryers. Many campers highly appreciate that these facilities can be used easily.
Are there any special features of the terrain or surroundings that I should know beforehand?
The campsite is very practical, but also close to a road and railway line. As a result, it can be a bit noisy at times. However, for a stopover or as a base for excursions, the location is still ideal, as you are just one kilometre from the town centre of Gällivare.
