Into The Wild Lappish Autumn

Written By Admin

Into the Wild Lappish autumn

Long weekend version – 1 August to 15 December 2012

Thursday

Arrival at the airport of Örnsköldsvik (or nearby), in Northern Sweden. Our driver will pick you up and drive you to the rustic cottage where you will stay throughout the trip. A typical dinner based on local products will be served to you if arrival time allows.

Friday

This day is dedicated to horseback riding in the pristine forest of the area. After breakfast, you will be driven to the stable, where you will become familiar with the horses and be taught how to communicate to them. After that, you will start your riding tour in the forest, guided by our experts. You will have lunch on an open fire along the way. In the evening, you will return to the stable and be driven again to the cottage, where you will be served a dinner based on local products.

 Saturday

This day is dedicated to pike fishing and grotto hiking. A boat will pick you up from the cottage and our local guides will sail you to the location where the best pike can be caught. With some luck, you will be able to enjoy this local delicacy on the spot! Lunch will be served on the boat or on the beach. During the afternoon, you will hike upon a hill and descend into a grotto, one of the most fascinating of the area. You will be equipped with helmet, light and all required technical clothes. Upon return, a barbecue dinner will be served, and you will have the chance to refresh your body with a sauna.

Sunday

The day is dedicated to hiking and moose-watching. Our guides will bring you to the spot where you are most likely to observe one of Europe’s largest mammals. Lunch will be prepared in the forest. Upon return, you will be able to spoil yourself a little after all this outdoor frenzy, and enjoy a full spa treatment. The dinner will be served in the spa.
