50 Degrees North is excited to announce the launch of its exclusive 'Women's Wellness Retreat in Finland', a 7-day wellness escape that begins on International Women's Day, March 8, 2026. Set in the peaceful surroundings of Finnish Lapland, this intimate retreat offers women a unique opportunity for self-care, relaxation, and unique Arctic adventures.

Yoga sessions will be led by the renowned Norwegian yoga instructor and author Hege Norman-Stormbringer.
“This retreat welcomes women travelling with friends, sisters, mothers, or those setting off on a solo adventure,” says Satu Vänskä-Westgarth, Director of Product at 50 Degrees North. “As a native Finn, it's an honour to invite others to experience the magic of our wilderness, from reindeer yoga to the restorative warmth of sauna yoga.
