Björkliden Mountain Resort
@ Bjorkliden Mountain Lodge
@ Bjorkliden Mountain Lodge
Tucked into the untouched wilds of Swedish Lapland, Björkliden Mountain Resort is more than a mountain retreat—it’s a doorway into Arctic wonder. With views stretching over Lake Torneträsk and the towering peaks of Abisko National Park, this alpine escape offers snow-dusted serenity, thrilling outdoor adventures, and skies made for the Northern Lights.
Redefining Luxury in Swedish Lapland
Luxury here isn’t about formality, it’s about the Northern Lights from your balcony, the sound of snow beneath your boots, and the freedom to shape each day around your own rhythm. At Björkliden, nature leads and Off the Map Travel ensures every detail follows your dreams.
Why Choose Björkliden?
At Björkliden, nature is the luxury. Whether you’re skiing on the slopes under the polar twilight, taking in the silence of a snowshoe trail, or watching the aurora ripple above your cabin, every moment connects you to the landscape in its rawest, most beautiful form.
Perfect for couples, families, or groups looking to blend comfort with high adventure, this is Swedish Lapland at its most authentic.
We don’t do “off the shelf”, your experience at Björkliden is shaped around how you want to explore the Arctic.
Crafted Just for You
From the lodge to the wilderness, everything at Björkliden can be tailored to your desires. Prefer cosy evenings by the fire after a day on the slopes? Or sunrise dogsled rides followed by sauna soaks and hearty Nordic meals? We’ll design your stay to match your style and energy.
Your stay includes:
- A choice of hotel rooms, mountain cabins, or private apartments
- Aurora viewings, either from the resort or on guided expeditions to Abisko
- Optional skiing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, or husky safaris
- Personalised transfers or self-drive options

We – the whole family – loved the whole journey!!
The accommodations, the activities and especially the great people – thank you very much for this fantastic organisation !!!
Barbara
Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.
Karen
We really enjoyed our Norwegian adventure despite the -22 days! Unfortunately no real experience of viewing the Lights but we did capture a couple of images on our last night – too much cloud otherwise so lots of snow. We really enjoyed the husky lodge – not at all what we had tentatively imagined. Thanks for your assistance, maybe next time we will see the Lights in all their glory.
Andrew
I would thoroughly recommend this company. Their planning and advice was spot on. Alex responded to my calls and emails very promptly. I will definitely use them again for future trips.
Rosie
We did! Everything was truly wonderful! I think the Holman Husky Lodge was our favourite place. Beautiful accommodations, but best of all, wonderful people! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, excellent food, we really enjoyed our time there. We also greatly enjoyed Bergen! Opus XVI was beautiful and we loved being able to walk to restaurants and bars and take in the sights. All of our drivers were punctual and friendly. The itinerary was full but not overfull.
Thank you so much! It was an epic trip, we are taking home wonderful memories!
Shelly
The ease of everything stood out to me. All we had to do was be there at the right time. The dog sledding was the highlight for my daughter and sister. We had the best time! For me, Manshausen was the highlight. We were very lucky and the only guests there for the majority of our stay. The staff was amazing and the food was so delicious. We had moose steak and it was the best meal I’ve ever had.
The cabins were comfortable and we were so lucky to have 2 clear nights where we just sat and watched the northern lights. We were able to get some awesome pictures too.
I appreciate all your time and care with planning our trip! I won’t hesitate to use Off the Map travel for our next adventure.
Kelly
My family and I traveled to Sweden to see The Northern Lights in March of 2023. From the planning process to every detail of the trip, I could not have been more pleased with our experience. Alex was exceptional to work with. His guidance on the time of year, where to stay, activities to do and how to get to and from everything was spot on. I have never used a tour company before but thought a trip of this kind would be easier with some help. I am so glad that I did. The entire week was seamless and completely stress-free, allowing us to truly enjoy Sweden and our time together as a family. I will be recommending Off The Map travel to friends and family and will certainly be using them myself again in the future.
Emily
What an amazing trip we are having. It is incredible. Many many thanks for arranging such an incredible trip.
Giles
Amy planned a fantastic trip! Everything was very well-thought out. All transfers went smoothly, accommodations were amazing, great restaurant recommendations and the tours were once-in-a-lifetime, can’t book it yourself off the internet experiences. The guides were all fantastic. Communications were prompt and everything worked exactly the way it was supposed to. What a pleasure! Already working on our next trip.

I used OTMT to organise a holiday to see the Northern Lights for my partner’s 50th birthday. They took the time to understand my priorities, the kinds of places we like to stay and the things we like to do. They recommended a fabulous itinerary in Norway centred around the Lyngen Experience Lodge. The holiday itself lived up to expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending OTMT. They listened carefully during the planning and delivered the perfect present for my partner.
Alex
The best travel experience ever on every level you can think of during a Lapland expedition (food, activities, timings, accommodation, transport, service, equipment…). I highly recommend Off The Map Travel for their outstanding level of professionalism and detail oriented mindset!
Sophie & Guy
Hello Lucy!! Kim and I had a fantastic time in Iceland! Probably one of my top 3 trips I’ve ever taken!
