The Wellness Retreat you know you need:
Day 1: Arrival in Tranquil Dalarna
Your journey begins with an exclusive transfer from Stockholm to the serene countryside of Dalarna. Upon arrival at Sunnanhed, your host welcomes you with a unique ritual by the outdoor campfire, setting the tone for an unforgettable experience. Immerse yourself in the cosy ambiance while savouring homemade fika and local delicacies.
After unwinding from your journey, explore the picturesque surroundings or settle into the serenity of doing very little. As an introduction to the local culture, a private chef will curate a 6-course tasting menu featuring ingredients sourced exclusively from Dalarna, providing a 100% local product experience.
Day 2: Simplicity of Nature
Wake up to a delectable breakfast featuring freshly baked bread and locally sourced produce. Embark on a tranquil nature walk in the forest, guided by a knowledgeable nature guide. Engage in blueberry picking (season permitting) and absorb insights about the local area.
The afternoon is yours to decide – take a refreshing swim in the lake or enjoy a book in the barn with the soothing sounds of nature. Indulge in an afternoon Swedish Fika and prepare something delicious with the berries you picked. Conclude the day with a sophisticated fine dining experience at Bruntegården Restaurant with views over Lake Siljan.
Day 3: Enchantments of Culture
Choose from three morning activities: a sunrise yoga session by the lake, a tranquil SUP board ride to a secluded island, or a cultural experience with a private breakfast and tour at Carl Larsson’s residence in Sundborn. Afternoon Swedish Fika is followed by a three-course sunset dinner cooked over an open fire, complemented by kulning, a traditional Scandinavian musical form.
Day 4: Serenity by the Lake
Start your day with a serene lakeside experience, including a meditative canoe paddle to a secluded lakeside sauna. Enjoy a lunch picnic overlooking the water, followed by a wood-burning sauna session and refreshing swims. Return to the barn for afternoon tea and a private yoga session with optional guided meditation. The evening unfolds with a delightful dinner at Solgårdskrogen restaurant.
