Northern Lights Season

Each morning after breakfast, we prepare for the day with our four-legged companions, anticipating new adventures. This is our life—living in the North with sled dogs.

We offer a variety of tours and experiences tailored for both relaxation and adventure. We aim to preserve and share our powerful natural experiences that recharge and inspire.

Experience the silence and enjoy the pause, where it feels good just to be.

Welcome to Holmen.
