Are you ready for an Experience?
Your treat is one week in the Swedish wilderness. This week is an interruption from everyday work, an interruption which fills you with energy and peace, and it will teach you to cherish what you have at home as well as Mother Earth. You will experience fire, water, earth and air.
The base is that in practice you will learn the ancient art of burning charcoal, a complex process during which you get a good deal of physical exercise. You might get pretty dirty.
Your lodge is right in the forest next to the earth kiln, and it ranges from tipi-like tents or a traditional collier´s hut to a simple bed made of spruce twigs right under the stars.
Further on, in small teams you will cook most of the meals on the campfire that you make. Sometimes you will get your food from the natural surroundings. You will catch fish from a small boat on a forest lake. In the deep forest in autumn you will pick berries and mushrooms. In spring you collect herbs for tea or tasty soups. Of course, one or two nights, depending on the mystic will of the kiln, we will have a feast with a selection of nature’s goodies.
There will be lots of free time that can be spent in many different ways. You may simply “do nothing”. You might want to read a book, maybe you brought painting gear. You can practice wood carving, take a hike in the forest alone or together, look for elks and birds, go canoeing… Our experienced guides, who will be at your service 24 hours a day, will show you the possibilities and the rest is up to you.
You will enjoy the wilderness and live in harmony with nature. The week illustrates the power of nature, a power that is simple, pure and totally magic.
