​

Day 1 - Drive to the Arctic Ocean 

​

Pick-up from Ivalo (airport or village center)
We begin our journey in Ivalo, Finland, in the afternoon and head north along a scenic road. The landscape shifts as we move—forests give way to wide open skies and Arctic coastline. We'll stop for a picnic packed lunch and take breaks as needed. Once we reach the sea, expect the unexpected: sunshine, wind, rain—whatever the Arctic offers, we will welcome it!

Traveling to the edge of the world teaches us first-hand what it means to let go and go with the flow.

​

Arrival to Bugøynes & Accommodation
We’ll settle into our cozy guesthouse in the heart of the village—twin rooms with shared bathrooms, kitchen, and living space. We will have some free time before enjoying a light supper at the guesthouse.

 

​Evening meditation 
After supper we will gather for a calming meditation —a quiet closing to your first day and a grounding arrival into your body. 

​

Day 2 - Nature connecting & Sensing

​

Breakfast 

We start the day with a hearty breakfast.

​

Nature stroll by the sea

After breakfast we will head out to the nearby hills for a gentle  stroll. During this walk, you’ll be invited to connect with the elements around you—placing your hands on stones, walking barefoot on moss and the cliffs, or sitting by the water to feel its rhythm. 

Through breath, Qigong movements and simple presence practices, we’ll open up to the sensations and intuitive messages nature may offer. You are free to also follow your own paths and pace. 

​

Lunch in Bistroen

Enjoy the first tastes of local flavors as we gather together for lunch in the charming Restaurant Bistroen.​

​

​Heart meditation and Sound healing with singing bowls

After lunch and some free time to digest, we will drive out of the village to a peaceful location for a guided heart meditation. Supported by Reiki and the soft resonance of singing bowls, we’ll enjoy a relaxing moment surrounded by the sounds of  waves and wind.

​

Sauna & Arctic Swim

We end the day with a deeply refreshing experience: a traditional sauna and dips into the Arctic Ocean. Feel fully alive and fully present. Take as many dips as you like and let your senses enjoy the experience. 

​​

Light Supper & Quiet Evening
Return to the guesthouse for a simple, comforting light supper and time for rest.

​

Day 3 - Hiking & Creative hour

 

Breakfast & Peaceful hiking tour with meditation

After enjoying breakfast we will embark on a mindful hike, walking at a relaxed pace that allows us to enjoy the landscape around us. The trail will be chosen according to weather and our groups wishes. All trails in the area do require moderate condition, but we will take it nice and slow and have breaks in between for observing and resting. Take a deep breath of salty sea air and find your center during a guided meditation session by the water's edge or on the cliffs. Afterward, enjoy a delicious packed lunch while listening to the rhythmic sounds of the waves and the distant calls of seabirds.

​

Lunch & Free time to explore

After hiking we gather for lunch in Restaurant Bistroen. The rest of the day is reserved for free explorations. Walk the shoreline, journal, or simply rest. Let the stillness guide your pace.

 

​​Creative hour under the Midnight Sun & Light Supper

In the early hours of the evening we gather together for a creative session with treasures of the Arctic coast. Paint stones and seashells with intention, or create a mandala out of what you can find in nature. Through texture and color reconnect with your inner artist and the wild beauty around you. Light supper will be served at our guesthouse accommodation.

​

Optional Sauna & Swimming

We can book a Sauna for an extra cost for tose who wish to experience Sauna & Swimming once again. The Sauna reservation is subject to availabiity.

​

​Day 4 - Time for reflection & Farewell

​

Breakfast & Closing circle with sound healing
After breakfast it is time to check out. But before we depart, we’ll gather for a final closing circle in a peaceful natural spot. We’ll end with a brief sound healing moment—a thank you to the land, the sea, and yourself.

​

Return Journey to Ivalo

Our drive back to Ivalo is mostly a time for quiet reflection and works as a gentle landing back to our daily lives. We can make brief stops if necessary and will arrive back to Ivalo in the afternoon.

Once in Ivalo, you’ll be dropped off at the airport or village center. We say goodbye, with our heart full and softened by the magic of the North.​
