Sleepaway Camps from Stockholm

2 camps

Swedes call it kollo: a week or more away from home, sleeping in a cabin or bunk room by the water, on a farm or aboard a boat. Kids sail, swim, ride and canoe all day, eat with their group, and come home a bit more independent. Some are city-run with fees based on income, others are run by private clubs and schools. Open each one for ages and dates.

A small sleepaway riding camp on an Icelandic horse farm outside Norrtälje, with about eight kids per camp. Each child looks after one horse for the stay: brushing, saddling, feeding and leading it to the paddock. Days mix riding lessons, trail rides, trying the Icelandic horse's gaits, vaulting, gymkhana and games with and without horses. Kids sleep in shared rooms in the loft above the stable, with a leader overnight.
