What can you expect?
If you want real snow in winter, Swedish Lapland is the place for you.
Snow lies here for six to seven months of the year and the temperature can drop to -40°C in the very cold season. Wrapped in snow, everything seems very peaceful and you can immerse yourself in a winter wonderland right behind our house.
Everything is possible during this winter holiday week, but also very little - just the way you want to spend your vacation.
This vacation offer is aimed at anyone who wants to get to know life with sled dogs or who wants to use nature and animals as a time-out for themselves.
Daily interaction with the huskies is included, and those who wish can help with the daily grooming, stroke the dogs or go for a walk with the senior dogs.
Sauna use, accommodation and meals are also included in the offer.
On 3 days of this week, all winter day offers can be booked for an additional charge, which can be found under the heading offers.
How is a vacation week structured?
Day 1 | Saturday | Arrival
You arrive at Skellefteå airport and are picked up by Mario if you are arriving by plane and have not booked a rental car. You check into your room and discuss the schedule for the next few days over a leisurely dinner. You can arrive in peace and get your first contact with the pack.
Day 2 - 6 | Sunday - Thursday | Individual design
You can plan your vacation just as you wish, whether it's a leisurely winter walk, a visit to the sauna, relaxing in your room or cuddling with the dogs.
The magical winter landscape up here in the north of Scandinavia, the peace and quiet and the daily contact with our dogs alone will relax you in no time and allow you to immerse yourself in another world for a few days.
You also have the option of booking one or more of our offers, such as the SledTour, a mushing workshop or a guided snowmobile tour.
And if you want to get up close to the cute reindeer, you can experience this during a visit to the reindeer enclosure.
And anyone who wants to explore the surrounding area by car or take a trip to Lycksele is very welcome. A rental car should be booked on arrival at Skelleftea Airport.
A popular destination in winter, but also in summer, is Jokkmokk, a small town on the Arctic Circle, about 250 km from us.
Day 7 | Friday | Departure
Mario will drive you back to the airport in Skellefteå if you have arrived by plane and have not booked a rental car.
How are we housed?
Guest room on your own floor
You stay with us in our house, so the accommodation is very informal. You have your own floor with 2 rooms at your disposal. There is also Wi-Fi, a sauna and a barbecue hut. Bathroom, shower and WC are shared
Where we live
The Swedish wilderness begins directly behind the house with several square kilometers of pure nature, where many native wild animals such as moose, reindeer, wild cats and many more live. Brown bears can also be found here in summer. The air here in the far north of Scandinavia is considered to be one of the cleanest. The drinking water is also of excellent quality, as it comes from a spring.
How is the catering provided?
Breakfast
For breakfast, there is a variety of homemade bread, regional bread specialties and muesli. Coffee and tea are available throughout the day, with a choice of cow's milk and oat milk.
Lunch
A small snack or coffee and cake is usually served at lunchtime.If you're out and about, you can take a snack with you for the road.
