Retreat to the Wilderness

Wilderness Cabins I Prices and Offers

Experience utter simplicity and peace of mind at one of our secluded wilderness retreat cabins.

Our four cosy cabins are located seperately deep in the taiga forest by either a lake or river. To stay in any of them is a true wilderness experience - just you, silence and beautiful wilderness. Away from modern conveniences and distractions you’ll closely experience nature. We take just one party at a time, so you are guaranteed a special and secluded experience.

We supply everything needed for a great trip - food, equipment and the experience to make it work.

You can choose the length of your stay and the degree to which you would like the service of a guide. The guide can help you prepare food, fetch water and to warm the cabin and wood-fired sauna. Guided activities from the camp are possible - skiing, snowshoeing, and ice-fishing in the winter, or, walking, canoeing, fishing and foraging in the summer. All retreats include a guide to bring you to the cabin and make sure you are totally at ease, safe, and warm at the camp.

Our staff is on call in case you should need any assistance while on your own at the camp.

In winter the cabins can only be reached by ski, snowshoe or snowmobile, in summer they can be reached by forest roads, cycling or by foot.
