Our unique igloo boat is moored in the tranquil waters just south of Gävle, only a short walk from the renowned **Peters Sjökrog**. The restaurant is famous for its exquisite cuisine and stunning panoramic views from a high cliff overlooking the horizon.

Close to Nature
Nestled next to the **Orarna Natura 2000** area, our location offers a close connection to nature. Here, you can experience diverse bird and wildlife, as well as unique wetland meadows where cows graze during summer. During the right season, local fishermen sell freshly smoked fish—a delicacy you won’t want to miss. This area is perfect for nature lovers looking to explore, take photos, or simply enjoy the serenity of untouched nature.

Winter: When the ice settles, Vårvik transforms into a paradise for ice fishing, skating, and skiing—right outside your igloo boat.
