Welcome to the wilderness

The proud owners of Sörbygen

The owners of Sörbygden, Victor and Anita, bring a wealth of experience, passion, and dedication to this unique destination.

Victor and Anita speak four languages—English, German, Dutch, and Swedish—and have been living in Sweden since 2012. For 12 of those years, they embraced life in the wilderness, enduring harsh winters of up to eight months with long, dark nights. This experience has shaped their deep connection to nature and their ability to thrive in challenging conditions.

Victor, born in 1980, is a certified wilderness guide and holds an Advanced Wilderness First Aid certification. With years of experience leading outdoor activities and expeditions, he has now taken the step to establish Sörbygden as a hub for wilderness adventures, outdoor training, and certifications.

Anita, born in 1987, brings her extensive background in hospitality to Sörbygden. Her warmth, sociability, and service-oriented mindset ensure that every guest feels welcome and cared for. Together, they create an environment where adventure meets comfort.

Sörbygden is also proud to partner with NOLS Wilderness Medicine, a renowned organization from the United States. This collaboration allows us to offer professional training and certifications in first aid and wilderness medicine, alongside a wide range of other courses and programs.

Whether you're here for adventure, personal growth, or simply to connect with nature, Sörbygden is a place where unforgettable experiences begin.
