Upon arrival in Luleaa Airport, you will be transferred to Brandon Lodge, a small lodge located on a small island, in the archipelago of Swedish Lapland. The archipelago is made up of more than 1,300 islands and only has 100 inhabitants - making it a true wilderness expreince for visitors of all ages.

Day 2: Nordic Winter Skills
The life in Swedish Lapland is made comfortable by learning how to dress and behave in the cold Sub-arctic climate. After this introduction we change into your warm outdoor clothing that we provide and go outside to strap on your snowshoes. Our guides will take you on a 3-hour journey into the forests near to Brändön Lodge and lead you through an adventurous and educational excursion. You will learn how use the snowshoes, make a fire in the snow, how to make tea and coffee over your open fire and also learn about the forest and wildlife of Sweden’s northernmost region. At lunchtime you will take a break in a traditional Sami hut, where together you will make a typical outdoor wilderness lunch. Here, on the reindeer pelts you will enjoy your meal around the fire and then relax. In Swedish Lapland it is important to relax, discuss, enjoy and appreciate our special environment. This is a perfect introduction to your Swedish Lapland adventure. No equipment of your own or previous experience is needed. Overnight in a standard cabin at Brandon Lodge incl. breakfast and dinner.
