A unique adventure off the beaten track

Discover the adventurer in you and enjoy a transformative experience on a deserted island in the middle of a huge lake in Sweden. Set in an awe-inspiring landscape, this course is an invitation to push back your own limits while reconnecting with the wilderness.
You'll learn to master essential wilderness survival skills such as orientation, weather observation, shelter building, finding water... But above all, you'll get out of your comfort zone, in complete safety.

A transformative experience!

In addition to mastering technical skills, this survival course will above all be a privileged moment to explore your mental and physical limits, the better to surpass them. This experience goes far beyond classic survival techniques. It immerses you in an unpredictable and fascinating world of grandiose landscapes. A world you're not used to evolving in, where you'll have to draw on your inner resources.
And that's where the experience is transformative, as you'll discover that you're stronger than you imagined, and gain in confidence!

In kindness and solidarity

During this off-the-beaten-track adventure, you'll forge strong bonds with other participants and share intense moments. You'll experience this adventure as a group, in a spirit of caring and solidarity. All our courses are based on the Leave No Trace principle. The aim is to leave as little trace as possible of your passage. Any garbage found along the way will be brought back.

A word from Anthony Verlaine

  • "Dive into the heart of Sweden's wild forests, where bears, wolves, lynx, elk and reindeer roam. A raw, immense, silent and powerful territory, where nature reigns unchallenged.
  • For 7 days, you'll learn to become autonomous, primitive and alive again.
  • You'll learn how to find food, fish in the cold waters of the lake, purify water, light a fire, build a shelter, listen to the forest, protect yourself, but above all reconnect with yourself, with what it means to truly survive.
  • Then, on a raft we'll build together, you'll cross the lake to The Haven Islands, a refuge suspended between sky and water, my hidden islands, lost in the middle of the lake. A sanctuary of peace
  • There, after survival, comes a time of rest, freedom, festivities, stories around the fire, bathing in pure water, fraternity and the bonds forged by effort and surpassing oneself.
  • It's not just a training course.
  • It's a rebirth, an escape from the world, to rediscover yourself, explore your limits, and realize that you're much stronger than you thought."
