    At the same time you can enjoy Swedens most famous nature with lakes, forrests, mountains, calmness and still some summerlight nights.
    Contact us for more information and with your questions.

    Our old farm i located in the middle of silent nature by the lake, mountains, forests, wildlife and in Southern Sapmi, the land of the indigenous people of Scandinavia (Jämtland). We are yogateachers who moved to this far out countryside in 2016 longing for and finding nature, silence, fresh air and the best place for our retreat center.

    We have a wild garden longing for plants and space, rooms needing new floor and windows and walls painting, repairing doors and steps, painting the little cottage, picking flowers and herbs for tea, preparing an out door fireplace, tuning the piano...
    Our beautiful farm has no cattle, but 4 cats, and small cultivating fields. The cats are the reason why you unfortunately can't bring your dog to our place.

    We eat vegetarian ecological food prepared together with love and respect. We do excursions or show you where to explore the wild nature nearby and visit old cultural places in the area, i e carvings from 5-8000 years ago.
    There is possibility to join yogaclasses, gongsessions, mantrachanting, meditation, fascial maneuvers sessions and sauna.

    The farm is located 20 km from the nearest foodstore, 80 km to the big city where you will find all you need included an adventurous open air museum (Jamtli) and shops, railway station, busstation and airport. There is a bus going into the city with some departures per day. Pick up from the railway station or airport can be arranged.
