But how far can you really get in one weekend? Adventure weekends can seem few and far between, but there are a few gems out there, especially if you consider that Scandinavia is only a few hours away by plane, and flights are cheap and readily available from most UK airports.

From the isle of Gotland in the east to the stunningly beautiful archipelago of the west, Sweden is filled with experiences that you will never forget.
Of course, after all that exertion you’ll need to relax, and what better way to wind down than an afternoon in a traditional Swedish spa, followed by a plunge into a naturally heated hot spring? Sweden is perfect for adventure weekends, with its combination of stunning scenery, high-adrenaline experiences and true relaxation. Sweden’s restaurants have been growing in reputation too, so your getaway will be a treat for all the senses.
So this week, when you’re stuck behind your desk, yearning to get away and make your mark on the world, why not let your mind wander north, and plan your perfect Swedish weekend adventure, the ultimate antidote to the daily grind.
