Itinerary

Day 1: Welcome to Lapland and Quest for the Northern Lights
Your blissful holiday begins at Kiruna Airport, where you are welcomed by our local staff and transferred to your own Wilderness cabin—your cosy residence for the next 3 nights. As dusk settles, bundle up for a thrilling guided dog sled tour into the wild to experience Lapland’s magical Northern Lights*. Later, enjoy a hot coffee and snack around the fire before returning to your cabin to spend your first romantic evening together in Lapland!

* Please note that the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) are a natural phenomenon and therefore sightings cannot be guaranteed.


Day 2: Snowmobile Adventure
Begin the day with an exciting guided snowmobile tour through a mesmerising valley leading to Kebnekaise, the tallest mountain in Sweden. Enjoy the stunning Lappish scenery as you glide through the snow towards the picturesque Lake Ladtjojaure, where you can try ice fishing on the frozen lake after a traditional lunch. After a bit more driving through the pristine landscape, you are returned to your cabin.

Day 3: Time For Each Other
The entire day is free to enjoy each other’s company as you wish. Why not make use of the free ski or snow shoe rentals to explore the stunning nature surrounding your cabin? After enjoying the great outdoors, snuggle in front of a cosy fire in the wood-fired stove or relax in your private sauna.

Day 4: ICEHOTEL

This exciting day begins with a transfer to the ICEHOTEL and the Ice Church in Jukkasjärvi to enjoy a guided tour about the history of this fascinating hotel. Every winter, the ICEHOTEL is completely rebuilt in Jukkasjärvi by artists from all over the world using snow and ice chunks from the local Torne River. The hotel, famous for its unique concept and dazzling works of art, features a stylish reception area and main hall, the chic ICEBAR and an incredible assortment of rooms and suites for over 100 guests. As your day winds to a close, cuddle up together in a cosy thermal sleeping bag in your own romantic “Art Suite” atop a soft layer of reindeer skins on a special bed constructed of snow and ice.

Day 5: Departure

Awaken to a cup of hot Lingonberry juice served at your bedside and take advantage of the ICEHOTEL’s generous breakfast buffet. Transportation is then provided to Kiruna Airport in time for your departure flight.
