Fly to Lulea. Meet and Greet & Transfer to secluded Arctic Retreat

The transfer, which takes around an hour, will take you from the open expanse of the Archipelago to the forest lands of the interior. You will head off the beaten track as you wind your way down to the river valley.
Set on a bend in the river among the tall pine trees lies the wonderful Arctic Retreat, the brainchild of Nick and Liza who searched Swedish Lapland for the perfect place to realise their dream.
This exclusive camp comprises 4 log cabins, each with an individual style but all have luxurious details. They comprise a loft room bedroom with downstairs living room. Details not normally associated with wilderness cabins are comfy double beds, log burner, Nespresso Machine, private Hot Tub looking out towards the Northern Lights and ensuite shower and toilet.
The separate restaurant cabin comprises just two tables and overlooks the river bend. Liza is an accomplished cook who prepares wonderful meals from locally sourced produce. Sitting here with a glass of wine in hand, savouring fine food and enjoying the scenery is what we call ‘Arctic Heaven’!
