Ski touring & winter fun in remote forests and fells of Sweden

Two experienced ski touring and nordic skating guides for each trip.

Our base camp is a charming off-grid cabin in the Navar valley on the banks of lake Navar. It’s a lovely rustic and cosy atmosphere. Wood-fired heaters will keep us warm. Lanterns and candles give us light. A sauna and melted snow is our “bath”. Each room will be shared by two guests. There is a proper kitchen with a gas stove and a gas fridge.

If weather conditions allow it, we'll head off for a 2-night expedition winter camping. Fear not, we'll be cosy! Staying warm while alpine camping is all about equipment and knowledge. We use Hilleberg Staika free-standing tents, Exped’s inflatable Downmats and Fjällräven Polar down sleeping bags. All made for way colder temperatures than you will experience on this trip. One trick we use for warming up right as we go to sleep is a bottle with hot water wrapped a sock in your sleeping bag.

When it’s cold out, you wanna minimise time spent without warm gloves on. We’ll keep cooking to a minimum for this reason. But that certainly doesn’t mean that you won’t eat delicious food! Our wilderness chef has prepared an array of hearty soups and stews for us to reheat.

You may have heard of a yurt, a circular tent traditionelly used by nomadic people on the steppes on Central Asia. We’ll use a modern style Hilleberg yurt you can all hang out and cook dinner in the evenings, protected from the elements. One of the many amazing properties of snow is that you can dig and form your own structures. By digging a canal for our legs, voilà, we got ourselves a couch and a table! Light up some lanterns and candles, put down some sheep skins and we have a cosy living room on the snowy wind-swept plateau.

Transport from /to Mora train station to the base cabin is included.

We'll eat delicious food on this trip! All meals, snacks and beverages are included. When we're at the cabin, we cook together. For skiing day trips and the expedition, we mostly heat soups and stews prepared by our wilderness chef.
