Octola is fully-catered and hosted, where a private chef is on hand to serve up delicious nordic cuisine, using locally-sourced ingredients, tailored to your tastes. We can ensure that your group will be extremely well looked after as you'll also have a butler on hand to help with serving meals and preparing the hot tub or sauna, so that as evening draws in you can relax and warm up tired limbs.
The crowning jewel of Octala is the location, siutated in the heart if a private 300-hectare wilderness reserve at a peak where all you can see in any direction is lush snow-covered forest and the winding river below. The chalet is perfect for those seeking privacy and quiet, far away from the crowds where you can truly immerse yourself in nature.
There a number of exciting wintry activities to do from here and your private wilderness guide is on hand to take you snowshoeing, sledding on and cross-country skiing. As the evening draws in the remote location is perfectly situated to optimise Northern Lights viewings and we'll take you out on snowshoe walks so you can enjoy the calm of the forest as you search the skies above, well away from light pollution.
