Discover serenity in Swedish Lapland with this exciting new wellbeing-orientated escape at the iconic Icehotel
To celebrate the iconic Icehotel’s 30th anniversary, Nordic travel specialist Discover the World has launched an exciting new wellbeing-orientated escape designed especially for the upcoming winter season in Swedish Lapland.
Filled with invigorating experiences, the new three-night break combines a variety of experiences aimed to help guests switch off and unwind in the stunningly tranquil surroundings.
Here’s what’s awaiting with ‘Spirit of the Arctic at Icehotel’:
There’s a wide array of rejuvenating activities and wellness escapades to sample. Offering the best of both, the new break includes invigorating and more gentle experiences.
Take on husky sledding, ice sculpting and gentle cross-country skiing, or try ‘Arctic wilderness bathing’ which takes its name from the popular ‘forest bathing’ trend and involves guests taking themselves away from the hotel to enjoy a self-guided walk, immersing themselves in the natural landscape whilst listening to a specially curated Arctic playlist; aiming to foster stillness and a connection to nature.
The break also includes a range of classic Icehotel experiences. These include one night sleeping on ice in the world’s coolest hotel, along with the chance to add activities such as a wilderness survival class, sleigh rides or even spending a night in a private wilderness cabin to really take full advantage of ‘aurora country’.
Don’t forget the pampering perks. Guests will sample spa treatments that make use of traditional natural Swedish ingredients at nearby Camp Ripan as well as enjoying warming saunas, hot tubs and relaxation pools.
The perfect antidote to the stress of daily life, the 30th Icehotel opens on 13 December 2019. The new Spirit of the Arctic escape is available until 07 March 2020 as a three night break on each of Discover the World’s eight departures.
With anticipation already high for the unveiling of further details of the chosen artists’ Art Suite designs and other unique features for Icehotel #30, the new activities will enhance the already beautiful atmosphere.
In November, the largest collection of artists yet will in the village of Jukkasjärvi for the construction of the hotel.
