Accessible solely by dogsled, snowmobile, boat or trail, the journey to the Peace & Quiet Hotel promises an authentic escape from your everyday life. Immerse yourself in an unforgettable exploration of Sápmi, the land of the Sámi people, and its vibrant wildlife. Adventure-filled days are complemented by sustainable dining, local beverages and the opportunity to unwind in Goahte-style guest rooms.

Whichever room you choose you'll be provided with cosy warmth, inviting you to savour the wonders of the wild Arctic nature, the dancing Northern Lights and the clear starry sky, all without enduring bone-chilling cold. Outside, revel in the snow through skiing, snowshoeing, husky rides, reindeer encounters and wildlife watching. You can even try your hand at mastering the art of ice fishing.

Each evening, indulge in a celebration of flavours with a three-course dinner at the hotel’s amazing restaurant, showcasing the finest regional produce.

Breakfast is also included and you can start your day with a nutritious breakfast designed for outdoor adventures. The menu highlights homemade Gáhkku, a flat Sami bread served with Sjaunja cured reindeer meat, salty butter and veggies. Pair it with creamy yoghourt from local mountain cows in Skabram, mixed with Lapland's foraged gold – cloudberries. Add cereals, a piece of fruit and a homemade juice crafted from local treasures like lingonberry or bilberry.

Jokkmokk's landscape, dominated by Arctic mountains and influenced by the Gulf Stream, results in an inland climate with cold snowy winters and dry hot summers. The Sámi people recognize eight distinct seasons, each worthy of exploration. At Peace and Quiet, Nature Hotel, you are assured the best chance to witness the Northern Lights in Europe, with a 95% chance within a three-night stay and a 99% chance during a seven-night stay.
