Swedish Lapland
Sápmi Nature Camp

A Sami experience
Sápmi Nature Camp an authentic, personal and sustainable camp that is a fabulous place from which to experience the unspoiled nature of Swedish Lapland above the Arctic Circle.
The camp consists of up to five traditional lavvu tents comfortably furnished with double beds, wood-fired stoves and simple Sami furniture, each stood on a wooden platform, spread out around a small cabin close to a central cabin with a dining room and warm outhouse.
Run by Lennart Pittja who grew up in a reindeer herding Sami family here, continuing a tradition that dates back thousands of years, you can expect an intimate experience of not only the wilderness, but of the unique culture here which the camp aims to envelop guests in.
There’s no electricity in the camp at all and during the winter light come from fire, candles, kerosene lamps and battery LED-lamps, but with the moon, stars and northern lights reflecting in the snow, it’s not as dark as you’d expect. In the summer, the camp perfectly placed for long summer days.

Swedish Lapland
Arctic Retreat is a little gem hidden deep in the forests of Swedish Lapland, on the banks of the Råne River.
There are three log cabins, one of which is a family cabin sleeping up to four people. Each features a bathroom, fireplace and private outdoor Jacuzzi. Large panoramic windows allow you to enjoy your surroundings – the pale haze of an early morning and the sprinkling of stars on a clear night is truly magical. There is also a wood-fired sauna in a separate building.
The lodge is ownded by a local family who moved from the city of Luleå to the countryside in order to create this idyllic hideaway. Hosts will be on hand during your stay should you need anything. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included and food will be high-end local cuisine prepared according to the season.
There is so much to do during a stay at Arctic Retreat from snowmobile safaris and husky rides to Nordic skiing and wilderness skills tours.
