With no electricity or running water, a stay at Kolarbyn Eco-Lodge is not for the faint of heart – but for the unshrinking traveller, nature’s rewards are plentiful. A couple of hours from Stockholm, a dozen charcoal huts are hidden deep in the enchanting spruce forest of Skinnskatteberg, with inflatable mattresses, sheepskin rugs, a fireplace and little else inside. Charcoal has been produced in kilns for centuries here to extract iron, and Kolarbyn is determined to keep the tradition alive. As birds wake guests with their song, a dip to wash in the lake and the prospect of building a fire to cook and make hot drinks awaits. There is no kitchen, instead a shed full of groceries and utensils.
