Nothing prepares you for the icy wilderness of Sweden's far north. This incredible trip takes you right inside the Arctic Circle to the snowy wilderness of Lapland. Slide across the ice in complete silence, listening to the sound of your team of dogs pulling your sled and enjoy the frozen beauty of the ICEHOTEL®. Sleeping out in a teepee in the snow and looking out for the aurora borealis (northern lights) are unforgettable experiences.

Day 1Arrive in Kiruna
KirunaArrive in Kiruna where you will be met at the airport for the transfer to the hotel. Please advise us of your flight times at the time of booking so that we can arrange the transfer for you. There’s no time to waste in heading out into the cold for the first activity, a close-up encounter with some of the local inhabitants, the moose.
Day 2After breakfast
After breakfast, transfer to the kennels to meet the team of dogs, your personal transport for the next few days. Get kitted out with cold weather clothing and given a full safety briefing before getting started. Receive a large coverall, which goes over your own ski gear, warm boots with a removeable iner lining (that go over your own hiking boots), mittens, and a hat. We recommend familiarizing yourself as much as possible with the dogs before getting started. You don’t want them running away from you!
Day 3A full-day dog sledding
A full-day dog sledding, and the chance to glimpse the famous Northern Lights at night.
Day 4Return the dogs to their kennelsAfter surviving the night in the teepee, enjoy breakfast and greet the dogs, who have a well-deserved rest day today. Head out on the ice to catch fish with some ice fishing. Return to the lodge to enjoy lunch. Having been with the group for the last few days, they now have a much-deserved rest as we head off on a different challenge, snowshoeing. Depending on the weather this evening, there might be an opportunity for a sauna.
