Lapland, which stretches across the northern regions of Sweden, is a land of unspoilt nature, snow-covered expanses and magical northern lights. This region, which covers a large part of the Arctic Circle, offers visitors unique experiences in one of the most remote and beautiful landscapes in Europe. An outstanding example of innovative tourism in this region is the Treehotel, which impresses with its unusual tree houses and sustainable philosophy.
The region of Lappland
Lapland, known as Sápmi in the Sami language, is home to the indigenous Sami people. This region stretches across Sweden, Norway, Finland and Russia, with the Swedish part known for its breathtaking nature and rich culture. The endless forests, majestic mountains and clear rivers offer numerous opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, skiing, dog sledding and fishing.
The phenomenon of the midnight sun in summer and the northern lights in winter is particularly fascinating. During the summer months, the sun never sets, creating endless days and a unique atmosphere. In winter, on the other hand, the Northern Lights dance in the sky and offer an unforgettable spectacle.
The Treehotel
In the middle of this impressive landscape lies the Treehotel, a unique hotel concept that combines the beauty and tranquillity of nature with modern design and comfort. The Treehotel is located in the small village of Harads, about 60 kilometres south of the Arctic Circle, and consists of several individually designed tree houses that are integrated into the surrounding pine forests.
Unique accommodation
Each tree house in the Treehotel was designed by a different Scandinavian architect and offers a very special experience. From the mirror-clad “Mirrorcube”, which is almost invisible in the landscape, to the “Bird’s Nest”, which looks like a giant bird’s nest – each tree house is a work of art in its own right.
The tree houses are built in an environmentally friendly way and offer luxurious comfort at the same time. They feature modern amenities such as underfloor heating, stylish furniture and panoramic windows that offer spectacular views of the surrounding nature.
Sustainability and ecology
The Treehotel attaches great importance to sustainability and environmental protection. The tree houses are constructed in such a way that they have as little impact on the environment as possible. Environmentally friendly materials are used and the energy supply comes mainly from renewable sources. The Treehotel’s philosophy is based on the principle of preserving the natural beauty of Lapland while offering guests unique and comfortable accommodation.
Activities & experiences
The Treehotel offers its guests a variety of activities that emphasise the beauty and wildness of Lapland. In winter, visitors can go dog sledding, snowmobiling or explore the snow-covered landscape on snowshoes. The chance to see the magical Northern Lights is also a highlight of a winter holiday.
Summer activities include kayaking, hiking and fishing. Guests can enjoy the midnight sun and take part in guided tours that offer insights into the local flora and fauna as well as the Sami culture.
The Swedish part of Lapland is an unrivalled destination for nature lovers and adventurers. With its unspoilt landscape, unique natural phenomena and rich Sami culture, this region offers unforgettable experiences. The Treehotel in Harads complements this natural beauty with its innovative architecture and sustainable philosophy, offering visitors a unique opportunity to experience the wilderness of Lapland in a comfortable and respectful way. A stay in Lapland and at the Treehotel promises adventure, relaxation and a deep connection with nature.
