Gutsy Girls Holiday | Backcountry Ski & Snowshoe Adventure in Sweden!

Ready to swap the ordinary for a six nights off-grid adventure in Sweden’s backcountry? This six-night women-only retreat combines backcountry cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and winter wilderness camping into one unforgettable journey.

With expert guides, hearty meals, and a cozy off-grid lodge as your base, you’ll learn new skills, embrace the cold, and discover just how strong and resilient you really are. Whether you’re gliding across frozen lakes or pitching tents on a mountain plateau, every moment is designed to challenge, motivate and inspire.

Highlights
• Learn backcountry skiing on metal-edged touring skis—no experience needed
• Snowshoe through boreal forests and moonlit trails
• Camp for two nights on the Fulufjället plateau in true alpine wilderness
• Stay in a remote lodge with saunas, wood stoves, and lantern-lit evenings
• Try ice dips (if you dare!) and warm up in traditional saunas
• Cook tasty meals together and share stories by the fire
• Watch for Northern Lights in one of Sweden’s darkest skies - fingers crossed!
