Six Senses Svart will be a sustainable, off-grid property, using solar energy, independent from the power grid. The concept of wellness will be integrated into the entire experience, from the Alchemy Bar offering regional healing techniques using local flora, to zero-waste dining. The Six Senses Spa will use both traditional Nordic treatments and pioneering therapies, from vitamin IVs and compression boots to sensory treatment suites. With a focus on outdoor activities like hiking, ice-climbing, yoga in the midnight sun and seeking the Aurora Borealis in winter, Six Senses Svart will become the ultimate wellness retreat.
