Winther retreat

Book your spot

February 4 - 8, 2025

5 days

Start året ud med et enestående retreat i Lofoten! Vores vinterretreat skaber et fællesskab for eventyrlystne kvinder, der ønsker at dele uforglemmelige oplevelser i de mest spektakulære omgivelser. Eventyret ledes af Fie, vores Lofoten-ekspert, som kender øernes skjulte perler og unikke steder. I samarbejde med Lofoten Apartments har hun skabt rammerne for et retreat, du sent vil glemme.

During this 5-day retreat, we will start our days with yoga, enjoying the views of beautiful, pastel-colored sunrises alongside our yoga instructor, Fredrikke. We will explore Lofoten's magical landscapes, take walks through the stunning winter scenery, find inner peace, and end our days with Arctic sauna sessions and refreshing dips in the sea, hopefully under the dancing Northern Lights.

We will be staying at Lofoten Apartments, where hosts Fredrikke and Erik will pamper us with three daily meals and create an atmosphere of true Nordic coziness. We will overnight in comfortable accommodations, surrounded by the magnificent views that Lofoten is known for. Accommodation will be in double rooms, shared with another participant.

Join this unique retreat, and let’s kick off the year with some self-care, unwind, find peace, and create unforgettable moments in Lofoten together.

Bemærk, at prisen er angivet i DKK, og tilmeldingsfristen er d. 05.01.2025. Depositum betales ved tilmelding og udgør 5.500 DKK, hvilket sikrer din plads på turen. Det resterende beløb betales senest ved tilmeldingsfristen d. 05.01.2025. Turen gennemføres ved minimum 6 tilmeldte deltagere, hvorfor vi anbefaler, at I ikke booker fly før bekræftelse af turen.

Type of adventure

This retreat is designed to accommodate everyone, regardless of previous experience with yoga or hiking. The trip is a unique opportunity for both beginners and experienced participants to immerse themselves in a relaxing yet active experience in nature. The yoga sessions will be tailored to all levels, and our hikes are planned so that everyone can participate, regardless of fitness or experience. The retreat is all about finding peace, creating balance, and connecting with nature.

Physical form

You are not required to be in peak physical condition, but you should be able to participate in moderate physical activities such as hiking and yoga. The hikes will vary in difficulty, but we will go at a relaxed pace so that everyone can keep up. One of the hikes will take us to the top of a mountain, making that day more physically demanding. The yoga sessions are adapted for all levels, and our focus will be on both physical and mental well-being. 

Transport to Lofoten

We recommend flying round-trip to Svolvær Airport, as there will be a shared pick-up to Lofoten Apartments from there. 

Arrival & departure

Check-in at Lofoten Apartments is from 15.00, and the welcome dinner takes place at 18.00. We arrange a combined pick-up from Svolvær Airport based on the flight departures (information to follow). Check-out takes place around 10.00, after which there will be transport to Svolvær Airport.

In the afternoon, we will return to a time of calm and immersion, where there will be time to read a good book, sip tea, coffee, or hot cocoa, and simply enjoy each other's company. The evening will conclude with a delicious dinner, followed by time in the sauna for everyone to enjoy.
Day 3: World-Class Views
The day starts again with a yoga session led by Fredrikke, after which we set off on an adventure. We drive to the iconic Haukland Beach, known for its white sand and turquoise waters. Here, we will take a beautiful walk along Gammelveien and perhaps take a dip in the lovely beach. After that, we will head to FURU, where we will light a fire and enjoy the sauna located by the most wonderful fjord. There will be a sauna session and the opportunity to dip into a hole in the ice.

Here, we can explore everything from cozy restaurants and cafés to small, authentic local shops. Later in the day, we will again offer the opportunity to relax and unwind with good conversations over tea, coffee, or hot cocoa.

Girlpower – 6 days & 6 mountains
North Away ApS gets my warmest recommendations! It was an absolutely fantastic week, filled with amazing nature experiences, the most beautiful views, big smiles, lots of laughter, great energy, and, above all, a wonderful sense of community. The trip was well-organized, and it’s definitely not the last time I’ll be going to Lofoten! And it’s certainly not the last time I’ll be using North Away either 😄✨

Family adventure in Lofoten
Thank you so much for an amazing travel itinerary. As parents of small children, it was invaluable to be able to sit back and know that everything was 100% taken care of when we arrived in Lofoten. Thank you for finding those unique little spots with a small playground for our girls and a hike for us – it made our trip perfect. Thanks for your quick responses whenever a question came up.

It was worth every penny, and we send you our warmest recommendations.

What you see, is what you get
After many self-arranged trips, this year we decided to take advantage of some convenient local expertise. North Away sent us an excellent itinerary that perfectly matched our needs and, most importantly, was accurate and easy to follow. Their recommendation to take the ferry from Bodø and fly back from Leknes to Bodø worked wonderfully, and the selected rorbuer were authentic—exactly what we had dreamed of. Our warmest recommendations go out to Fie and Bjørn’s North Away.

Unforgettable experience
Fie and Bjørn, the owners of North Away, managed to create an incredibly amazing experience during a week-long group tour. They shared their best tips, personal experiences, and were extremely helpful both before and during our trip. If you want to just sit back and let someone else handle the planning, I can wholeheartedly trust North Away to take care of it!

North Away are experts on Lofoten
Book your next trip to Lofoten with North Away – you won’t regret it! Fie and Bjørn, who run the business, have so much knowledge and experience with Lofoten that you’re guaranteed to discover hidden gems you wouldn’t find on your own. The trip they arranged for us was magical and exceeded all of our expectations before we even arrived in Lofoten. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again when I return. A 100% wholehearted recommendation from me!

An adventurous Lofoten experience!
My two adult sons and I traveled to Lofoten with North Away. Fie and Bjørn, the owners of North Away, had arranged an absolutely perfect van group tour, where they accompanied us the entire way.

I can highly recommend North Away.
