Cool Sweden

8 Days / 4 locations in Sweden

Your holiday break begins in Sweden’s beautiful capital, Stockholm - the capital of life and movement. Stockholm is built on 14 islands, all part of an archipelago. Sweden’s Capital is charming, vibrant and surrounded by beauty and water - hence it’s nickname, Venice of the North. After enjoying an urban lifestyle in Stockholm continue north - 200km inside the Arctic Circle to the last wilderness of Europe – Abisko. After that the world famous Ice hotel awaits you. Ten thousand years ago, glaciers carved a riverbed and the Torne River was born. Since then, the crystal-clear, pure water of the Torne

River has flowed freely along its 600-kilometer path through Lapland out to the sea in the southeast. With the newly built Ice hotel 365, this amazing experience is available all year around. Thanks to the long days in the north, all energy for the new building

will be produced by solar panels. Therefore the Ice hotel 365 will be cooled by the sun
