Auktsjaur Country House
About the company
We are a young company in the tourism industry in Lapland. We offer accommodation close to nature for individuals and small groups in our Auktsjaur Country House, which has 7 rooms, a cabin and a glamping tent combined with experiences. Our business is niched in close-to-nature experiences with elements of local food. We organize simple activities to places in Auktsjaur and the surrounding area. It can be fishing with fishing kayak and fishing guide (fly fishing / spin fishing) to lakes in the immediate area or hikes / excursions on hiking trails with activities such as mushroom picking. The activities we offer are carried out "like a local", i.e. in a way that we learned during our childhood from the older generations.
About the mission
We see that there are two different types of assignments with us this summer where you can choose the option that suits you best, or if you are interested in getting involved in both projects.
Assignment 1
The company has collaboration with the local village association (FAU) and various activity companies in the immediate area (Auktsjaur and surrounding villages, the village ring). The Association for the Development of Auktsjaur (FAU) has worked in close collaboration with entrepreneurs in Auktsjaur on the project "Collaboration for the development of various outdoor activities" during 2021-2022 and has now applied for funds for an implementation project "hiking trails in Auktsjaur" 2024/25 in collaboration with Kreativa Byar. In the summer of 2024, we will build 2 hiking trails and a shorter hiking loop for children / young people with questions about nature and culture with a focus on sustainability. The design of the hiking loop, the information on the issues and the digitization of the loop are the core of the assignment. The hiking trails should follow the national framework with signs and markings and be partially adapted to people with functional variations.
Assignment 2
Auktsjaur Country House will build an outdoor kitchen in the summer of 2024 and we would like to engage someone to project manage, design, develop ideas about the design together with the company and the craftsman. How the kitchen will be built and what will be in it. The project is linked to the food experiences the company offers. How do you cook on an open fire and in a stone oven? What dishes were made in the past?
Appropriate education can be
