This is what custom Lapland trips could look like.

Five friends from school days were looking for a shared, exclusive challenge. We were dropped off in the wilderness by helicopter. This was followed by a demanding three-day hut hike through the spectacular landscape of Northern Sweden, including skinny dipping in an ice-cold mountain lake. Afterwards, a few relaxed days at Villa Björklund with SUP on the lake, midnight sun, intense conversations, and the first self-caught fish.
exclusive & tailor-made

Four entrepreneurs from Munich wanted to completely switch off for a few days. So a helicopter took us deep into the fells. From there, we hiked with snowshoes to a remote wilderness cabin and even crossed the border into Norway along the way. Chopping wood, drilling ice holes, fetching water, cooking together, and long conversations by the fireplace. Four days of complete tranquility and Northern Lights over the snow-covered landscape. A reset for teams with big plans.
Maximum Focus & 100% Offline Guarantee

A family from Cologne wanted to spend time together, parents, adult children, and their partners. They spent the first night in the picturesque Norwegian port city of Bodø. Afterwards, a week in our cozy Villa Björklund in Lapland, a lakeside house in the middle of nature. A canoe trip, shared hikes, blueberry picking in the forest, campfires, outdoor BBQ, and relaxation in the panoramic sauna made this trip a special family time.
Spend time with loved ones

An author from Austria came to us in Lapland because she was stuck in a creative rut. The ideas simply wouldn't flow anymore. She spent two weeks at Villa Björklund by the lake, surrounded by nothing but nature, silence, and vastness. During the day, she took long hikes through the forests, encountered reindeer, moose, and spent a lot of time outdoors. Slowly, inspiration returned. By the end of her trip, the house was full of flip charts, notes, and new ideas. Lapland became a place where creativity found space again.
creative & individual

A well-known musician was looking for something that had become rare for him: peace and anonymity. The journey began with a little preparation: "How to act like a normal person." With hiking clothes from a second-hand shop, a beard, sunglasses, and a cap, he traveled with me, first time economy, from the Big City to us. No VIP treatment. No attention. In our lakeside villa in Björklund, he could simply be normal. We spent a lot of time outdoors, fished, laughed, cried, and drank canned beer. At the end of his stay, he said: "I felt so normal." And that's exactly what he was looking for.
Maximum Discretion & Being Normal

A politician and her husband wanted to escape everyday life for a week. In the picturesque winter landscape of Lapland, they found exactly the peace they were looking for. Ice bathing and sauna on the frozen lake included. While she often made herself comfortable with a book by the fireplace, I was out with her husband, ice fishing or trying our luck hunting ptarmigan. In the evening, we met again, filleted the fish, and her husband and I cooked together. A simple week in nature, but exactly what the two needed.
escape everyday stress
My name is Michael and I have lived in Swedish Lapland for many years. This region is not just my workplace – it is my new home.
With my Master’s in Sport and Adventure Management, I plan and organize individual nature trips for small groups and special individuals.
I speak German, English, and Swedish and know the region from my own experience – in every season.
My strength is to create a trip from many possible modules that perfectly suits you and your fellow travelers.
Some guests want to be dropped deep in the fells by helicopter and be offline for several days. Others simply seek peace, sauna, and time with their friends or family.
Both are possible. But always: genuine and authentic Lapland.
„The most beautiful moments often arise where there is no cell phone reception.“
These are three exemplary accommodations of your choice – depending on the season, availability, and tour:



















We choose the accommodation to match your style and comfort level.
Option A: Complete self-catering (ideal for groups who enjoy cooking together).
Option B: We take care of everything: breakfast, packed lunches for on the go, and regional, freshly prepared dinner.
The price depends on how many days you want to travel, which activities are included, and what your budget is.
After a brief conversation, you will receive a transparent, individual offer that truly suits you.
No surprises on site – you only pay for what you truly want.
Most customized trips last between 3 and 8 days, some even longer. Whether it’s a short break, an extended weekend, or a complete outdoor week – we adapt the length to your wishes and available time.
Lapland has 8 seasons. Each season has its own charm. In our conversation, we clarify whether you are looking for, for example, summer by the lake, autumn colors, winter adventures, or spring winter in the fells – and suggest suitable activities.
We design your tour to match your requirements and pace.
From tranquil nature moments to challenging fell tours, everything is possible – the only important thing is that you are eager to be outdoors.
Lapland is nature, and sometimes it plays by its own rules. If an activity cannot take place, we flexibly adjust the day and find a safe, suitable alternative.
For all our tours, I have a plan B up my sleeve.
You are always well looked after – and often, the most beautiful stories are created on such days.
Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) are primarily visible in northern Sweden between September and March. Particularly good viewing conditions exist on clear, dark nights between 9:00 PM and 2:00 AM. A cloudless sky and as little light pollution as possible are important. Our Villa Björklund is located in a place with 6 inhabitants. The next larger towns are 30 km away. The perfect place for Northern Lights. During the summer months, no Northern Lights are visible due to the midnight sun.
