Itinerary

Important Information

Sami Experience at the Arctic Bath is unavailable between 22-28 December.

Aurora Safari Camp
Lavvu tents - single, double and family tents (max 2 adults and 2 children in each tent).

At the camp there are 3 Lavvu rooms and 2 Lapland cones. NEW UPGRADES for the Lapland Cones include a separate entrance hallway; to remove winter clothing and boots before heading inside; and an en-suite bathroom consisting of an incineration toilet and wash basin. In each cone there are heaters that remain warm throughout the night.

Please note: Hot Air Ballooning is very weather sensitive. We will try to fly your first evening and if not possible, second. If not possible to fly during your stay you will get a full refund of the ballooning activity cost. Hot Air Ballooning is only available between 20 Feb and 31 April, weather dependent.

Just a five minute drive from the Arctic Bath, we can add a night at the TREEHOTEL Sweden - stay in a bird's nest high in the forest or a UFO for the evening.

SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL:

Your glamping experience at the Aurora Safari Camp is the first of its kind in the world. It was the vision of two men; Jonas and Fredik who, having worked in Kenya and inspired by African bush camps, realised there was nothing of its kind in the North and wanted to replicate the experience of simplicity, connecting with nature, and working in harmony with their surroundings and local communities. Sustainability is at the core of what they offer; meals are shared over a campfire, there is no electricity on site (light is provided by campfire, solar cells and LED lights), and the activities provided are designed to provide as little disruption to the environment as possible (snowshoes, fatbikes, kicksleds, photography). Treks are popular and offer a good chance of glimpsing wildlife such as moose, red fox and doe deer. This experience is as tranquil and down-to-earth as you can get.

The Arctic Bath is a completely unique accommodation which invites visitors to immerse themselves in the elements whilst leaving a minimal environmental footprint. The buildings are constructed using natural, sustainable materials – stone, wood, leather and other textiles whilst the central Arctic Bath complex itself was constructed with native birch trees. AnnKathrin Lundqvist, partner at the Arctic Bath, said: “We have a strong environmental focus. We’ve chosen so many materials that are locally produced.” The cabins, located on the tree lined shore, have also been elevated on stilts above the ground so as not to disturb the natural growth below.
