HIGHLAND
WELLNESS
Take a deep breath and re-connect to nature…
We got you: the everyday life is becoming more and more challenging and stressful. While we try to become masters of multi-tasking, we hardly notice that we are stressing ourselves beyond the limits.
Your body, mind and soul are welcome to “recharge” far away from civilization up in the Swedish highlands during a week filled with relaxing activities while staying in our cozy highland hotel offering spectacular views and a vintage ambience with a modern touch
Qi Gong and/or yoga sessions
Every day starts with a session and ends with the same taking place outdoor when the weather conditions allow for it. Otherwise we will meet at a cozy indoor spot.
“Skogs & fjäll terapi”
(Woods & mountain therapy)
Today there is scientific evidence proving the positive effects of eco-therapy. The Japanese practice of forest bathing, Shinrin-Yoku, lowers the heart rate and blood pressure, reduces stress hormone production, boosts the immune system and improves overall feelings of wellbeing.
Hikes through the forests and up on the highlands
Enjoy the silence and wonderful nature sceneries and get the taste of the wilderness.
Health food courses
Enjoy cooking with organic products from the area as you learn new recipes and about their positive influence on the body.
Mountain Panorama sauna & classic Finnish wood sauna
Enjoy total relaxation as you spent your time in the panorama sauna having a view at the mountain tops and let your body experience a reset as you heat up in the finnish wood sauna.
Outdoor hot tub sessions at the edge of the wilderness
Get to feel how the warm bubbling water refreshes your senses as you enjoy our outdoor hot tubs on the veranda.
The activities will take place in a peaceful way, giving you time for slowing down, having calm and inspiring talks and discussions.
During your trips through the “fjäll” (highlands) you may spot reindeers, foxes and birds and enjoy the unique flora of the area, including edible mushrooms and berries if you happen to come in late July or August.
Accommodation
Your accommodation will be at the wonderful Skarvruet Highland Hotel with its vintage wilderness ambiente. Its wellness area offers a panorama sauna with breath-taking views over the untouched mountains and a wood burning finish sauna built from old timber and a grass roof. The artisanal food served at Skarvruet has the character of the northern wilderness.
During the evenings of your wildlife adventure week, you are welcome back to the hotel to warm up in the saunas or the hot tubs and enjoy a three-course dinner at the restaurant.

Meet the Sami & reindeers
You may also visit a local Sami tribe. These native inhabitants of northern Scandinavia have lived outdoors in the highlands for hundreds of years and still feel and celebrate their deep connection to nature giving them a relaxed and calm mindset.
