Welcome to Challenge Accepted – a winter training camp designed for horseback archers who are ready to push through discomfort, sharpen their focus, and become more than just skilled. Become resilient. Purposeful. Unshakable.
Ground archery is practiced indoors in a warm hall, ensuring comfort and focus even when the temperatures drop outside.

You will shoot.
You will freeze a little.
You might even doubt yourself.
But you’ll leave stronger than you came.

What to expect?
- Mental coaching seamlessly integrated into each day’s training and challenges
- Diverse and surprising riding and horseback archery exercises
- Physical morning workouts
- Evening challenges – unexpected tasks you can’t prepare for
No spoilers – just one question:
Will you accept the challenge?

- 🥇 Two-time Finnish Champion (2022 & 2023)

What makes this camp unique?
Welcome to Lapland — a land of extremes and breathtaking beauty.
This camp takes place in the deep arctic winter, where you’ll train in snowy landscapes, breathe crisp northern air, and challenge both body and mind in subzero temperatures. The riding arena and frozen hills, pine forests, and open fields covered in snow.
You’ll sweat under the layers and maybe even freeze your toes a little — but it’s all part of the journey. And when the day ends, the northern lights might just dance above your tent.
This is not your typical horseback archery camp. This is Challenge Accepted.
