Net Fish and Chill Traditional Arctic Fishing in Sweden

6 days (approximately)
Pickup offered
Offered in: Swedish and 1 more

This is not a survival course or a standard fishing charter; it is a lived experience. Participants gain legal access to traditional Arctic net fishing—a practice rare for outsiders—and learn ancestral food processing alongside expert mentors in a remote, private lakeside setting. Based at a working husky kennel, this program allows you to step out of the instructional noise and into the practical, quiet rhythms of Northern Sweden
