Swedish Lapland "land of the midnight sun”
Swedish Lapland "land of the midnight sun”
In march 2018 we open up our new ”home” NIEHKU MOUNTAIN VILLA. For 5 years we have been working on this project to create a place that fullfil our own high standards of how a mountain home should be like. As ”locals” we have been working in this area since 1994 and are proud to call it our real backyard and home. Welcome to Europe's last wilderness!
The terrain is very interesting and varied with everything from steep couloirs to long glacier cruising. With summits up to 2,100 meters, the peaks in the region are not particularly high but the runs are surprisingly long- averaging around 700- 900 vertical meters with some up to respectable 1,400 vertical meters.
Niehku Mountan Villa offers the highest standard of accommodation
in the area. With just fourteen well- appointed rooms the lodge
is relaxed, warm and friendly; and is the perfect place to unwind after
a day’s heliskiing the Arctic powder.
One of the highlights of staying at ”Niehku” is undoubtedly the
influence of esteemed sommelier and restaurateur Patrik Strömsten who
will ensure that sensational dining experiences are an integral part of
your heliski adventurer in Sweden’s great white north.
If you are based in Europe and want to heliski without traveling half way
around the planet, Sweden is both convenient and practical for either a week- long trip or an extended weekend. With a helicopter at your disposal, good skiing conditions can almost always be found. You can expect to find snow conditions ranging from excellent powder to spring snow. . . and everything in between.
