Swedish Lapland
Swedish Lapland is a land of extremes. During the winter temperatures average -15C and the sun gives way to magical ribbons of greens, blues, red and purples as the northern lights dance across the starry sky. During the summer the sun never sets and temperatures can easily reach 20C or more.
Between September and March the northern lights (aurora borealis) bring a certain magical touch to your holiday in Swedish Lapland. The uncertainty they bring and the cosmic nature of intense colours, including blues, greens and purples, dancing in ribbons across the night sky make them a major attraction for holidays to Lapland.
Between May and August the sun never sets and night ceases to exist, the northern lights give way to the sun. The indigenous Sami follow their reindeer to the mountains and the locals celebrate these long sunny days with outdoor adventures and food served up by nature. Walking and hiking are popular activities and you should leave your body clock at home - it simple does not work!

ICEHOTEL - Swedish Lapland
ICEHOTEL is situated in the picturesque village of Jukkasjärvi, 200 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle in Swedish Lapland, on the shores of the River Torne, which flows freely through the unspoiled wilderness. As winter approaches, the Northern Lights dance across the night sky and crystal clear ice starts to form on the mighty Torne River. This unique building material is the source of ICEHOTEL, ICEchurch and the Absolute ICEbar.
