Sälen is well suited to both coworking and meetings, although the offering differs from the open-plan office environments of big cities. Here it's more about focus, silence and environments where nature helps you to concentrate. In practice, there are three main tracks: private mountain cabins and lodges with workspaces, hotels with meeting rooms and outdoor creative meetings.
1. working in private lodges and mountain huts
For smaller teams, management groups or workations, private lodges are the most productive option. They offer stable fibre or enhanced 4G/5G, large tables, screens or TVs with HDMI/Chromecast, separate bedrooms that double as focus rooms and good lighting. At Sälengodset Mountain Luxe there is workation-friendly accommodation with dedicated workspaces, quiet rooms and the possibility of private chef - perfect for alternating between work blocks, mountain breaks and communal dinners.
2. meeting rooms in hotels and resorts
Hotels in Lindvallen, Högfjället, Tandådalen and Hundfjället offer classic conference services with bookable rooms of various sizes, AV equipment, pads, pens, coffee and catering. It is suitable when you want a formal setting, larger capacity or combine daytime meetings with nearby accommodation and activities.
3. creative meetings in the mountains
The third track is meetings in nature. Walk-and-talk along trails, workshops at shelters or a break by the fireplace can create better conversations than another hour in a room. The mountain environment helps groups to think long-term, reflect and find new perspectives.
Technology and practical advice
For hybrid meetings, technology is crucial. Check connectivity in advance and have a backup plan via mobile broadband. A quick checklist: stable fibre or 4G/5G, screen or projector with the right cables, good lighting, a quiet room for one-to-one calls and flexible furniture for workshops. Low and mid-season (May-June, September-November) offer the best access to facilities and often better pricing.
Plan your working week in the mountains
Based on the purpose: efficient working week, management meeting or corporate retreat. Choose your accommodation based on how you want to work, confirm your connection in writing, reserve meeting rooms for key sessions and plan meals - self-catering for pace and budget or chef for greater comfort. Leave room in your schedule for short mountain breaks - this is often when the most creative conversations happen.
Summary - working with a view
Sälen offers great opportunities for coworking and meetings, even without traditional offices. Combine exclusive accommodation with the hotel's meeting rooms, mountain hikes and relaxation in the sauna or spa. Explore the the conference guide for inspiration, plan activities via teambuilding in the mountains and let SälenFjällen give you the right balance between focus and freedom.
