With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to soak up everything that Lulea, 20 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here should be Gammelstad Church, Lulea Cathedral and Coop Arena. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Boden, 30 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, let it be Boden Fortress. (But we’d also highly recommend Western Farm and Nordpoolen.)
