Naturbyn is a unique Swedish nature village, hidden among spruces and pines at a quiet bay in Lake Eldan Värmland, with hand built log cabins and cottages, treehouses and a wooden houseboat. Here you can relax and enjoy the beauty that nature has to offer. From cooking on an open fire, dipping into the wooden fire-heated hot tub to jumping into the refreshing lake after your sauna.

message for our guests

MARCH 19, 2020 – Even out here in the wilderness the worrying news regarding a virus came a long… Something that is causing major problems unfortunately. I must admit, it feels a bit safer to be out in nature with just a few people around. I hope that this will pass by quickly for everyone and that the borders will open again soon in order for our foreign guests to come here and enjoy the simplicity of living in the wild. We are expecting guests from different countries, of which the borders are currently closed. Hopefully the borders will be reopened in time before the start of a new season at Naturbyn as of May. In case it will turn out differently and therefore hard to get here at the scheduled dates, we would like to offer you to reschedule to a later date this year or next year if necessary.

I would also sincerely like to ask for you to help me/us by waiting to rebook etc… until it is closer to the date of your visit, to see if you will be able to travel. Fingers crossed!

Today is an amazing day here in the forest and nature is really coming to life again after a long and dark winter. I truly hope that we all remain healthy and that we will be able to meet in the near future 👍🌲

Thank you in advance.

Nature adventure

During the day you can take a canoe trip on the lake where there are lots of small islands and bathing places, that offers you privacy and you can be by yourself. The lake has plenty of fish, so why not try to catch a pike perch for lunch? You can prepare your meals and coffee at the open fireplace and fill your mug with water from a natural spring with the purest water you’ll ever taste.

ENjoy the silence

In the evening you take a relaxing bath in the wooden fire-heated hot tub or take a sauna and find your inner peace. While you dream away in the soft light of the paraffin lamps and listen to the crackling sounds from the steel Jøtul wood stove there is nothing but silence. In the morning you wake up with just the sound of a woodpecker and the early bird. Take a refreshing bath overlooking the sun rise over the lake Eldan and feel you are surrounded by mother nature.

What more do you need? No electricity, no WIFI, no distractions. Just you and nature.
