Fly to Lulea in Swedish Lapland, where you will be met and transferred to Brändö where a welcome warming drink will be served around the open fire whilst you choose your warm clothing for the duration of your stay.
Depending on your arrival time, you will be transferred to your accommodaton either by snowmobile or 4WD to Pine Bay Lodge (Furufjärden in Swedish) over the frozen Archipelago. Start your Northern Lights holiday with with a beautiful view of the horizon over the frozen Bay of Bothnia, and maybe even see the Northern Lights on your first night.
Owner Goran Widen’s Pine Bay Lodge is situated on the coastal edge of the Luleå Archipelago, which has a total of 1300 islands and only 100 residents and is a unique wilderness environment where the sea around the island freezes up to a metre thick in winter. The lodge is a lovely traditional Swedish red cottage with a very homely feel. There are only eight en-suite guest rooms, and a lovely communal area around a log fire is a great way to meet new people. These rooms have all recently been refurbished, and have great views over the frozen bay.
To kick-start your adventure you will head out on a Northern Lights Snowmobile Adventure and go hunting for the Aurora Borealis.
