: R19630
Your holiday break begins in Sweden’s beautiful capital, Stockholm - the capital of life & movement. After enjoying an urban lifestyle in Stockholm continue north, 200km inside the Arctic Circle to the world famous Icehotel. Ten thousand years ago, glaciers carved a riverbed & 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. The entire ICEHOTEL is “on loan” from the mighty Torne River & is a place where time stands still.
