The setup (sleep, space, and team flow)
We’re a small operation — personal, not hotel-like — and that’s exactly why guests & teams like it.

From single/double accommodation to 12–16 people total (typical team week setup)
Team capacity (planning note)

Common flow (what teams usually need)
A place to sleep well
A place to brief / debrief
A place to dry gear / do laundry
A base that makes it easy to keep the week simple
Briefing flow (indoors + outdoors)
Teams often use our Club House and outdoor spaces for:
Map talks and planning
Short debriefs after sessions
Mobility, warm-up, and reset time
It’s not a corporate conference room. It’s a functional, calm base camp — with the right atmosphere for focused work.
Training week support (light-touch, practical)
We don’t run your training. You bring your plan. But we can help you make the week smoother.
Local, practical pointers when you arrive (how the area “works”, what’s close, what’s sensible)
Suggestions for easy runs / longer days / recovery walks
A host who is present and proactive when needed — without over-managing your week
If you want, we can also suggest a recovery-focused add-on (Skogspaus-style forest pause) for athletes and staff.
Embargo & GPS etiquette (important)
In the build-up to major events, some areas may have access rules (including GPS/Strava/Livelox etiquette). We respect the official guidelines and encourage teams to do the same.
We are not an official organizer page. For official updates, embargo information, and event rules, always follow the WOC 2029 organizers and the relevant federation channels.

Season logic (important)
The right fit by season
We keep the Base Camp flexible — so it works for both team training blocks and summer visitors.
May–June & September (best for teams): training camps, clinics, coach/staff workation weeks
July–August (summer stays): supporters, visitors, and High Coast holidays (Airbnb core)
Event weeks (summer 2029): availability may include team blocks — request early if you want to coordinate a group stay
Note for planning: In high season and close to the event, last-minute opportunities are unlikely. If you want a coordinated team setup, reach out early.
