Only Action-packed week in Arctic Sweden and the spectacular Icehotel Deep inside the Arctic Circle in Swedish Lapland sits the peaceful hamlet of Lappeasuando. From here all that lies ahead is a land characterised by deep forests, frozen lakes and the extraordinary Northern Lights. Our base is ideally located to explore this surrounding wilderness, with a week packed full of activities. With our guides we spend two days learning to drive the dogsleds, build an igloo, and break trails through fresh powder on snowshoes. The week then culminates with a memorable night in the magical Icehotel. Born fourteen years ago out of an igloo housing artworks, the crystal-clear ice of the nearby River Torne has since then provided a spectacularly unique design every year. A night here is the perfect end to a truly unforgettable week. Trip Highlight The Northern Lights The stunning Aurora Borealis is one of nature's most awe-inspiring sights. Displays vary in intensity - from a greenish yellow glow moving gently around the sky, to a spectacular multi-coloured show dancing across the heavens. Sightings not only vary in intensity but in duration too, from just minutes to sometimes hours. on a week-long stay, you have a reasonably high chance of seeing the most spectacular light show on earth. 21 Dec# 27 Dec 2399 1849 27 Dec# 02 Jan 2499 1949 12 Feb# 18 Feb 2499 1949 2011/2012 19 Feb+ 25 Feb 2299 1799 04 Mar+ 10 Mar 2299 1799 18 Mar+ 24 Mar 2299 1799 27 Dec 02 Jan 2549 1949 21 Dec 27 Dec 2449 1899 2012/2013 Datesandpricescorrectattimeofpublication (seepage11).Pricesare�Sterlingperperson. � Single rooms not available � #Ice rooms only � +upgrade to ice rooms for a supplement of �80 per person � Insurance �28 NORWAY Kiruna Icehotel Lappeasuando Basecamp Oulanka Kuusamo Arctic Circle SWEDEN Available on the following trips: Lapland Adventure & the Icehotel (this page) Finnish Wilderness Week (page 15) 14 FINLAND Hotel Kalevala Kajaani Talk to an expert on 0845 863 9606
