Program
Step into the stunning landscapes of the Arctic Ocean on this 4-day, 3-night retreat to Bugøynes, a quiet fishing village along Norway’s northern coast. This getaway invites you to reconnect with yourself and with nature. Through guided meditations, soulful hikes, and the raw energy of the Arctic Ocean, you’ll release, recharge, and realign. Breathe with the waves, move with intention, and soak in the deep calm of Bugøynes. Plus, enjoy local cuisine and take a refreshing plunge into crystal-clear waters straight from the sauna—an unforgettable experience.
Day 1 - Drive to the Arctic Ocean
Pick-up from Ivalo (airport or village center)
We begin our journey in Ivalo, Finland, in the afternoon and head north along a scenic road. The landscape shifts as we move—forests give way to wide open skies and Arctic coastline. We'll stop for a picnic packed lunch and take breaks as needed. Once we reach the sea, expect the unexpected: sunshine, wind, rain—whatever the Arctic offers, we will welcome it!
Traveling to the edge of the world teaches us first-hand what it means to let go and go with the flow.
Arrival to Bugøynes & Accommodation
We’ll settle into our cozy guesthouse in the heart of the village—twin rooms with shared bathrooms, kitchen, and living space. We will have some free time before enjoying a light supper at the guesthouse.
Evening meditation
After supper we will gather for a calming meditation —a quiet closing to your first day and a grounding arrival into your body.
Day 2 - Nature connecting & Sensing
Breakfast
We start the day with a hearty breakfast.
Nature stroll by the sea
After breakfast we will head out to the nearby hills for a gentle stroll. During this walk, you’ll be invited to connect with the elements around you—placing your hands on stones, walking barefoot on moss and the cliffs, or sitting by the water to feel its rhythm.
Through breath, gentle movements and simple presence practices, we’ll open up to the sensations and intuitive messages nature may offer. You are free to also follow your own paths and pace.
Lunch in Bistroen
Enjoy the first tastes of local flavors as we gather together for lunch in the charming Restaurant Bistroen.
Heart meditation and Sound healing with singing bowls
After lunch and some free time to digest, we will drive out of the village to a peaceful location for a guided heart meditation. Supported by Reiki and the soft resonance of singing bowls, we’ll enjoy a relaxing moment surrounded by the sounds of waves and wind.
Sauna & Arctic Swim
We end the day with a deeply refreshing experience: a traditional sauna and dips into the Arctic Ocean. Feel fully alive and fully present. Take as many dips as you like and let your senses enjoy the experience.
Light Supper & Quiet Evening
Return to the guesthouse for a simple, comforting light supper and time for rest.
Day 3 - Hiking & Relaxation
Breakfast & Peaceful hiking tour with meditation
After enjoying breakfast we will embark on a mindful hike, walking at a relaxed pace that allows us to enjoy the landscape around us. The trail will be chosen according to weather and our groups wishes. All trails in the area do require moderate condition, but we will take it nice and slow and have breaks in between for observing and resting. Take a deep breath of salty sea air and find your center during a guided meditation session by the water's edge or on the cliffs. Afterward, enjoy a delicious packed lunch while listening to the rhythmic sounds of the waves and the distant calls of seabirds.
Lunch & Free time to explore
After hiking we gather for lunch in Restaurant Bistroen. The rest of the day is reserved for free explorations. Walk the shoreline, journal, or simply rest. Let the stillness guide your pace.
Optional King crab safari
Bugoynes is known for its King crabs and there is a possibility to join a King crab safari for an extra charge. Mention your interest beforehand and I can book you the safari.
Light supper & Reiki relaxation
We gather in the evening for a light supper. Before retrieving to our rooms - I will hold a relaxation moment with the assistance of Reiki.
Day 4 - Time for reflection & Farewell
Breakfast & Closing circle with sound healing
After breakfast it is time to check out. But before we depart, we’ll gather for a final closing circle in a peaceful natural spot. We’ll end with a brief sound healing moment—a thank you to the land, the sea, and yourself.
Return Journey to Ivalo
Our drive back to Ivalo is mostly a time for quiet reflection and works as a gentle landing back to our daily lives. We can make brief stops if necessary and will arrive back to Ivalo in the afternoon.
Once in Ivalo, you’ll be dropped off at the airport or village center. We say goodbye, with our heart full and softened by the magic of the North.
The order of the program might change and in extreme rainy weather the hiking programs will be replaced with alternative activities. Little rain and wind will not harm us, however, and is considered part of the experience.
