ICEHOTEL
Made of ice from the pure waters of the Torne River, the ice hotel in Jukkasjärvi is built every winter and melts every summer. At Icehotel everything is made from ice, from floor to ceiling, from the beds to the bar and even the glass you drink from. You can stay in the hotel itself or in the one of the nearby cosy cabins. Outside the hotel is a myriad of activities for you to enjoy; a wilderness safari on dog sleds and snowmobiles and, if you are lucky, you might see the magical, magnificent Northern Lights. One of the delights of Lapland is its cuisine. The fells, forests, marshes, lakes and rivers of the Arctic Circle offer venison, ptarmigan and wood grouse, as well as salmon and grayling. All of which can be enjoyed at the Icehotel restaurant. The Icehotel is spectacularly and wonderfully unique and you will never forget your stay here.

Northern Sweden

Northern Sweden is a vast landscape of towering alpine peaks and endless vistas of pine forest, Polar plains, meadows and glaciers. Its eastern edge is fringed by a rolling coastline, peppered by islands and skerries. No description of Northern Sweden is complete without mentioning Swedish Lapland - Europe’s last remaining wilderness.

Lovers of the outdoors life will love northern Sweden’s legendary national parks; Abisko and Sarek being two outstanding examples. Northern Sweden is also the ancestral home of the Sami, the indigenous people of the region, whose unique traditions and culture thankfully thrive today. Bear, elk, the wolverine, the golden eagle and the rare Arctic Fox have their home here in Northern Sweden. As if these natural riches were not enough, this the land of the Midnight Sun and the staggeringly beautiful Northern Lights,

We could go on – and on.
