Stockholm Weekend Break Itinerary

Friday
Arrive to Stockholm on your own pace. If you arrive early, we’d recommend to use our Stockholm guide and see the best winter places of the city not to miss on your holiday! Meet your guide in the early evening and enjoy Swedish fika while talking about the coming days and getting to know your fellow travelers. In the evening, enjoy a drink in the outdoorsy and hip lounge of your hotel.

Saturday
Enjoy a luxurious breakfast in the morning. Your guide will pick you up at your hotel in the morning. A winter hike is on today’s schedule! We drive out by minivan for about 30 to 40 minutes, and into the local nature reserves. Use snowshoes or ice cleats to walk up hills, and use our safety equipment to take safely cross frozen lakes! We enjoy a warm lunch around a campfire. During late afternoon, we enjoy an outdoor sauna where we can meet the locals and for those who dare, a dip in the icy lake in the pitch black is a possibility! Evening is spent at own leisure.

Sunday
Wake up to yet another day of adventure! Once again, we pick you up from your hotel. Today we will try Nordic ice skating and cross country skiing. We drive out, gear up and enter the ice! Standing on a massive frozen lake really is a mighty experience. Our pedagogic and friendly guides make it easy to pick up and will give you the confidence you need. After yet another warm campfire lunch, we clip in the cross country skis and glide through the beautiful and silent winter forest. Happy and tired we head back to Stockholm. Rich in new happy memories, we say our goodbyes and you can enjoy a last evening of our beautiful winter city!
