About this Retreat
Your Guides
Founder of Soulhike and guide Elsebeth Molberg Thing grew up in Greenland with the mountains as her playground. After a career in teaching and learning theory, she founded Soulhike to share her joy of nature with others. With Soulhike, she now works with how nature teaches us to deeper learnings in the wild of Sweden and Iceland.
The nature of Greenland shaped her more than school did. As a child she ran off every afternoon after school to play in the mountains. Here she developed a close relationship with Arctic nature. School led her further into society, to literature and a life of teaching, while her heart continued to long for the mountains of hrt childhood. When she moved to Iceland in 2020, she experienced a country she never wanted to leave. A nature that brought her back to herself and into deeper connection with the nature that has shaped us all. In 2024, she decided to leave her academic career in favor of a life in and with nature and founded Soulhike. Her mission is now to support others towards a deeper connection to nature through hiking.

Our days in the wild will be a deep dive into nature. From the moment we disembark from transportation, we will be in the vast woods surrounding the unique geological landscapes of Söderåsen. Our days will be full of hiking and exploring ways to connect with nature. From filling your waterbottle through filtering water, forest meditation, putting up your personal tent and taking care of yourself in nature - this retreat will be an outdoor practical experience with the depth of a meditation retreat. We will be held and supported by nature.

From there we will embark on the train to Sweden together and be picked up by our driver to take us to the nature reserve. All you have to do is figure out how to arrive in Copenhagen Airport on the Friday afternoon of the beginning of the retreat. Our return will be evening Sunday time, so it is well for you to know your way to your home or accomodation from there so you can have a quiet time reinstalling yourself to indoor culture.
