North Sweden: Active Summer Adventure

Reinvigorate with a complete nature immersion in the pristine landscapes of Sápmi, an area known to most as Lapland. We trek and bike to explore the untamed wilderness, while also learning more about the indigenous Sámi people and the Big Four Scandinavian predators. Our trip culminates with a two-day forest expedition, where we stay in a traditional log cabin and get back to nature in the peaceful, untouched wilds of northern Sweden.

Our base for the week is Rajamaa, a complex of wooden chalets run by the welcoming Malmstrom family since 1986. The accommodation is in Sweden on an island in the river Muonio, just across the border from Finland.



Rajamaa consists of a main building with a reception area, dining room and sauna. Accommodation comprises two-bedroom chalets with shared bathroom facilities and one-bedroom chalets with private facilities. All chalets are equipped with a shower/WC and a mini-kitchen. Complimentary wifi is available.



Twin and double rooms are usually allocated in the two-bedroom chalets. This means a maximum of four people (two couples or twin sharers) will stay in each chalet and share bathroom facilities. Twin sharers may share bathroom facilities with up to two members of the opposite sex, but bedrooms are always single sex.



Couples/pairs travelling together who do not wish to share bathroom facilities with others may be able to pay a supplement to secure a one-bedroom chalet. This is strictly based on availability and the make-up of the group. Single rooms are limited and subject to availability. These are offered for a supplement, payable upon booking. Single rooms may be allocated in the big chalets (shared facilities) or in a small chalet (private facilities), depending on availability.



One night during the trip is spent in a remote forest lodge where accommodation is dormitory style (maximum of four people per room). No single rooms are available at this accommodation and bathroom facilities come in the form of an outhouse with a longdrop.
