Knowledge is essential if you want to set out on your own, roughing it in the wilderness.

We hold a range of courses on life in the woods and in the mountains. You

how to ensure a safe and rewarding hike. We also offer courses in fishing and hunting.

 

A minimum of four participants are required on all courses.

FLY-FISHING COURSES: BASIC, STANDARD AND EXPEDITION


Basics course, 3 days, starting from zero. We look at equipment choice, basic methods of casting and the art of reading the water.


Advanced course, 2 days, starts off where the basic course ended. We build on this with more hands-on fishing in lakes and flowing water. The emphasis here is on reading the water and presenting the fly as attractively as possible. You can take part in this course if you have your own equipment and already know how to set a fly a few metres out.


Expedition, 4 days and 3 nights. This course is open to experienced anglers. Those with a generous nature may like to share their experience with anglers who have less experience. We leave civilisation behind and set off trophy fishing in the open sections of the Tavvaätno or Kaitum Rivers with one of our experienced guides. There are opportunities to catch large quantities of fish even for beginners, and perhaps a personal best for those with more experience. Guided drifting expedition in the wilderness.

PADDLING IN RAPIDS
With over 20 years’ experience of whitewater paddling we can teach you a great deal about how to navigate various craft through our untamed rivers. We use canoes, kayaks and inflatables to travel through white water and shoot the rapids. This is where you learn to tame the wild water.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

UGL- Leadership and Co-operation in Groups
The aim of this course is to make the participants more effective as leaders or managers, trainers and group memebers.

 

This course is about group dynamics, and focuses on the participants’ own experiences in the exercises and information provided during the course. The course is experiencebased,
and participants work actively to develop themselves within their
own areas.

The course is demanding and puts heavy demands on you as a participant. You should be mentally in balance with yourself and your environment. The course is run in groups of 8–12 people and is led by two experienced and certified facilitators. The course is in the form of a residential course at the ICEHOTEL over five days and includes sessions each evening. The course requires your attendance at all sessions.


Course in Leadership Development
A ground-breaking new course that is aimed at managers and leaders of organisations and companies who want to develop their leadership abilities and grow in their role as managers. The course builds on the latest research and the application of leadership.

Leadership Development is used as a model for leadership training by the Swedish Armed Forces and is a popular management and leadership course in industry and public administration.

The aim of this course is to give you a solid foundation for consciously developing your leadership on a daily basis; and to contribute to developing you and your organization towards greater efficiency.

Before the course start, your current leadership style is mapped. This is done by you yourself and those you select from your work environment filling in a rating form. The results of this rating are qualityassured on a scientific basis by the Swedish National Defence College (FHS).

The course runs for four days, with three days initially and one day’s followup after three months. The course is run in groups of 8–15 people and is led by experienced and certified facilitators. You first get a theoretical grounding in the Developing Leadership model. Thereafter, lectures alternate with exercises in which you work actively on strengthening your current leadership.

 

Throughout the course, you get personal feedback from the other course participants and the course facilitators. You receive personal supervision in continuing to develop and strengthen your leadership based on your own personal action plan. The last part of the course is the reunion with followup three months later to firmly establish your personal action plan.
