Uddjaur

Uddjaure spreads across the lake country around Arjeplog, where its many islands and bays lie between Hornavan and Storavan. The lakes belong to the Skellefte River system, which flows east to the Gulf of Bothnia. Their shores have long been part of a Sámi landscape of fishing, hunting and reindeer herding; in winter the frozen waters also provided passage across the wooded interior.
