HOW TO GET HERE

Some useful Information to make sure, its not getting here which is the greatest challenge of your Scandinavian adventure!

BY AIRPLANE - to Hemavan/Tärnaby

The closest airport to us is Hemavan/Tärnaby airport. When flying here, pay attention to the fact that you’ll have to check in again in Arlanda. Allow at least one hour to change flights in Arlanda, especially on the return flight!
Currently there is only one carrier, flying twice daily to Hemavan, 6 days per week. No flights Saturday. This is the easiest and quickest way to us and we can arrange airport to our base transportation (approx 50 mins)

BY AIRPLANE - to Umeå

This will also be through Arlanda but can be booked as one continuous trip, therefore you will get help in case of a delay. From Umeå there is a bus which will take you directly to our doorstep (destination “Slussfors”). Between Umeå airport and Umeå busstation lays a 4km Taxi ride or another bus (No 80 to Universitetssjukhuset, 15 min). The busride takes a little over 4 hrs and is fairly comfortable with free WiFi and power for recharging on board. The busfare is around 270SEK and the tickets can be bought at the ticket office at Umeå busstation or (for the return) from the driver. They don't take cash (like many places in Sweden) so bring a bankcard. Any debit or credit card should do.

There are several Taxi companies in Umeå, you find a list here : FIND A TAXI
