Why teams choose Docksta as a base

You’re not coming here for “more”. You’re coming here for better.

• Recovery nights, clean rhythm (sleep and recovery first)

• Fast logistics (easy arrival, parking, simple routines)

• Waterfront reset (downshift between sessions)

• Local host knowledge (practical, low-drama support)

• Höga Kusten terrain access (sea-level + hills/mountain days)

Who this is for

• National teams & club teams planning WOC 2029 build-up weeks

• Coaches & staff who need a calm base for planning, analysis, and recovery

• Athletes who want a training week that feels sustainable (not chaotic)

If you’re looking for a place that understands the difference between “holiday busy” and “training calm”, you’ll feel it here.

The setup: a simple, team-friendly base camp flow

Capacity 14–16 (from 2027). A quiet waterfront setup designed for recovery-first training weeks. Briefing-friendly spaces, laundry rhythm, and practical logistics for focused training blocks.

🧭

Orienteering team weeks are not about “more amenities”. They’re about fewer decisions, less friction, and a rhythm that supports training quality.

We’re a small operation — personal, not hotel-like — and that’s exactly why both guests and teams like it: the setup stays calm, functional, and easy to manage.

Peak Performance (in one sentence)

Peak Performance is our recovery-first base camp concept: quiet sleep, simple routines, and reliable logistics — so your training week stays focused.

Capacity & planning

Flexible capacity

• From single/double accommodation to a coordinated setup for 12–16 people (typical team week)

Team capacity (planning note)

• From 2027: up to 14–16 guests (depending on unit mix)  

• From 2028–2029: up to 18–20 guests may be possible (subject to confirmation and week-by-week setup)

The team flow (what teams usually need)

• A place to sleep well  

• A place to brief / debrief  

• A place to dry gear and manage laundry  

• A base that makes it easy to keep the week simple

Briefing-friendly spaces (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)

Practical support for orienteering training camps

We don’t run your training. You bring your plan. But we can help your week feel smoother and less friction-heavy:  

• 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

Request availability

Planning note (important): For coordinated team setups (multiple units / preferred unit mix), reaching out early helps — especially in busier periods.

What to send

Please include: preferred dates (May–June is best), estimated headcount, team type (national team/club/staff), and any must-haves (workspace, laundry rhythm, kitchenette access, parking/van needs).
