The Arctic Mansion

When our guests arrive, they often long for longer stays. And after the stay, they are longing to return. We take that as the best grade for our hospitality, accommodation and our activities.

At Filipsborg we offer Arctic experiences combined with top-class hotel accommodation. You get to meet the free-roaming reindeer on the reindeer’s own terms, snowmobile safaris, dog sledding, photo safaris in the hunt for Aurora, also known as the northern lights, ice floating and ski trips or snowshoeing. The activities start at the mansion but can also include transfers when needed.

Filipsborg is beautifully situated by the free Kalix river and close to the sea and the archipelago of the Gulf of Bothnia. Here you can enjoy experiences during all days and seasons of the year. The exciting cold of winter, the bubbling vegetation of spring, the white nights of summer and the wonderful colors of autumn.

In addition to offering fantastic accommodation in our hotel, we arrange activities that give you memories for life. In winter, nature trips on snowmobile along the river and in the archipelago. We offer safaris where you can meet our reindeers plus snowshoe walks, ice fishing and much more. Through partners, we offer husky safaris and icebreaker experiences. In summer, we launch our boat Filippa II on a quiet river safari to our wilderness camp or out in the archipelago. In the autumn when Kalix Caviar is caught, you get the experience of a caviar safari with knowledgeable fishermen who catch the desirable vendace that gives the exclusive Kalix caviar. We can also arrange hunting safaris on the manor’s own properties, mainly hare and forest bird.

Next to the mansion we have caravan plots for guests who arrive with motorhomes or caravans. They are beautifully situated next to the free-flowing Kalix River, from where the glitter of the water spreads. They are right next to the river, on grass or gravel – all with a view of the water. The electrical outlets deliver up to 16A/3600W. Wi-fi covers most of the area and of course there is access to shower and WC. During the summer of 2022, we will expand with space for dish washing/laundry and opportunities for toilet emptying.
