Jokkmokk Municipality (Swedish: Jokkmokks kommun, Finnish: Jokimukan kunta, Northern Sami: Johkamohkki gielda, Meänkieli: Jokinmukka) is a municipality in Norrbotten County in northern Sweden.

The municipality is situated in the Scandinavian Mountains in Swedish Lapland and is sparsely populated.

The Laponian area is roughly divided into the eastern flatlands and the western mountainous region.

There are several well-structured and well-maintained starting locations for those interested in experiencing the majestic wilderness.

These national parks are popular with tourists all year around but the darkest and coldest months (November to January) are not recommended for beginners.

The best period for sunshine and winter activities is from February all through April, when the snow lies deep and the days are long.

As with most areas in the Nordic countries, the actual warm period is quite short, but as Jokkmokk Municipality has a continental climate, the temperature can top 30 degrees Celsius in the summer and reach as low as -40 degrees Celsius in the winter.

Collisions with reindeer are frequent in most of the northern parts of the Nordic countries and drivers should keep an eye out.

This is a good time for hiking but due to the shifting temperatures the mountainous parts of the national parks can be treacherous for those unprepared.

There are iron ore deposits in the region, and the proposed Kallak mine, which has been met with resistance by activists, lies within the municipality.
