Activities and adventures

Hiking from one inn to another

This is a hike through the wilderness between two inns. It’s a hike of about 10 km, and includes a trip on a “Davy Crocket” raft, over a lake. Sometimes we land on one of the islands of the lake and prepare a meal over open fire.

Sometimes we use one of our horses to carry the luggage

In wintertime is it possible to hitch-hike some parts with a sledge.

On these hikes we always use a guide, so people don’t get lost.

Regardless of which direction you make this trip, an inn with hot food, a nice bed and maybe a sauna (if you are in the mood) will be waiting for you.

Whiskytasting
At Solbacka we have both a good sample of whisky and some knowledge about it. It seems to be two great ingredients for making a whiskytasting. We makes those tastings for groups from 3 to 20 people.

If you prefer to undertake this hike on your own, without one of our guides, we regret to inform you that we cannot offer you the use of the raft or the horses. This will also result in the need to take a longer walk around the lake and will remove our legal responsibility of you on th hike.
Our wilderness sauna and the wooden barrel heated with firewood is a tremendous experience both summer and wintertime. These days, the purpose with taking a bath in this bathtub and sauna is not to be clean. The purpose is to have a nice evening with your friends.

Beaver safari

If you would like to have a nice experience in a canoe we recommend a Beaver safari. You go out with a guide in the late afternoon and make a visit in Beaverland.

You will see the beavers nest, and if you are lucky you will see some beavers and perhaps even a moose.

You gain energy- as well as a body massage. It can take place outdoor with a relaxing view, (as in the picture) or indoors.

In the picture you can see two of our masseurs.

With horse and surrey through “Selma-land”
In the summertime we have horses at Solbacka. A trip with horse and surrey through Selma Lagerlöfs home district Östra Ämtervik, can be the perfect way to spend a morning or afternoon during Summer.
