about

we found something in the arctic,and stayed for it.

A boutique retreat in Finnish Lapland, built from a deep connection to the Arctic and a belief in the power of place, and the stories it holds.

our story

born from a lovefor the arctic.

Sixty Eight North was born from our love of the Arctic and a deep belief in the power of place and storytelling. In 2020 we turned that feeling into something real, a retreat where others could experience the clarity, inspiration, and growth the Arctic gave us.

Here, we slowed down, reconnected, and began to truly listen: to ourselves, to the land, and to the stories passed down through generations. From hearing ancient tales around the fire to spending time with Sámi reindeer herders, we were drawn to a culture that has quietly shaped Lapland for centuries.

We created Sixty Eight North as a place to feel at home in nature, to grow, reflect, and return to what truly matters, not through traditional luxury, but through presence, intention, and authenticity.

our vision

more than a holiday,a shared story.

We believe travel should feel personal, grounded, and real. Every experience at Sixty Eight North is rooted in storytelling, connection, and authenticity, a chance to step into the lives, landscapes, and traditions of Lapland.

Whether it’s fishing with a local, spending time with Sámi reindeer herders, or sharing a quiet meal by the fire, you’re not just observing; you’re part of something meaningful.

We work hand-in-hand with local partners who generously open their world to curious, respectful guests. Because travel, at its best, is a shared story.

our promise

more than a stay,a sense of home.

More than a stay, we offer a place to breathe; and experiences that stay with you long after you’ve left.

Every day is shaped to suit your pace, preferences, and sense of curiosity; never rushed, never one-size-fits-all. We work only with ethical, local partners who share our values: people who care deeply for the land, its traditions, and the animals that share it. From Sámi reindeer herders to small family-run farms and guides, we choose people who genuinely love what they do, and invite you into their world with honesty and respect.

Animal welfare and care for nature sit at the core of every experience we offer: real, respectful encounters that honour the Arctic and the lives it supports.
