Icehotel

swedish lapland Constructed annually from 30,000 cubic metres of ice and snow, Icehotel is as authentic as a trip into the Arctic Circle gets, with indoor temperatures averaging a bone-chilling -7C. But fear not. You’ll be kept toasty warm with thermal sleeping bags, reindeer skins, hot chocolate and, most importantly, shots of home-brewed gin. If the lights aren’t coming to you, you’ll be taken to them on overnight excursions—and you get to pick the mode of transport, with the thrilling options ranging from snowmobiles to 10-husky-strong dog-sled teams. icehotel.com
