What's this trip about?

A 5-day holiday to a scenic and culturally rich region of central Sweden to track Wolves and other mammals through snow-cloaked taiga forests, from the comfort of one of the region's most acclaimed hotels. On this holiday we’ll be based in the heart of the Scandinavian Wolf population, close to the stunning Lake Siljan in an area known as the ‘heart of Sweden’. This is a region of lakes and snow-covered hills and forests, where folklore and old traditions remain in tact. At this time of year, we – and the Wolves – will have the place very much to ourselves. A star of the trip will be our guide, Anders Stahl, a renowned wolf-tracker, conservationist and artist. Using snow-shoes or cross-country skis, we’ll head out, under Anders’ expert tutelage, into Wolf pack territories learning how to interpret the tracks and signs we find of Wolf and other forest birds and mammals.
