The Treehotel near Harads is a cluster of striking designer treehouses suspended among the pines of Swedish Lapland, each by a different architect: a mirrored cube that vanishes into the forest, a flying-saucer UFO, a giant bird's nest, a blue cone. It is a design pilgrimage and a unique, quiet forest stay.

What you actually see

  • The Mirrorcube - the reflective cube that disappears into the trees.
  • The UFO and Bird's Nest - the flying-saucer and giant-nest rooms.
  • The forest setting - the treehouses among the northern pines by the Lule river.
  • Aurora and quiet - the dark skies and stillness of the forest.

When to go

Year-round; winter for aurora and snow, summer for the midnight sun and green forest. Each treehouse is different, so the experience varies by room.

Honest expectations

It is a small, high-end design hotel rather than a public attraction, so it is really for those staying, and it is expensive. There is little to see for a casual visitor beyond the setting. It is remote in the far north, reached via Lulea.

Nearby

Lulea and its Gammelstad church town are the nearest gateway; the Lapland wilds spread around.
