If your ideal winter includes Christmas markets, steaming cups of mulled wine, and cozy evenings surrounded by snow-covered streets — this might be your dream remote work setup.
This winter, Hubs Travel is venturing north for the first time with a brand-new workation destination in Stavanger, Norway, running from 1 December 2025 to 31 March 2026.
The concept? Bring together a small community of remote professionals to live, work, and explore together in one of Scandinavia’s most picturesque coastal cities — turning the darker months into an opportunity for connection, creativity, and adventure.
Why Stavanger?
Located on Norway’s stunning southwest coast, Stavanger perfectly balances small-city charm with access to world-class nature. Think colorful wooden houses, a lively harbor lined with cafés and galleries, and easy escapes to dramatic fjords and winter hiking trails — all within a short drive.
Between December and March, temperatures typically range between 0–8°C. That means you get the crisp air and winter coziness without the harsh freeze of Norway’s northern regions.
One day, you could be typing away from a warm coworking nook with a coffee in hand; the next, hiking the legendary Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) — one of Scandinavia’s most iconic viewpoints.
It’s this blend of urban comfort and natural beauty that makes Stavanger such an ideal base for a winter workation.
What Makes a Hubs Travel Workation Different
Hubs Travel has built a reputation for turning overlooked destinations into thriving remote work hubs — from the Swiss Alps to the Balkans — helping local communities combat seasonality while giving digital nomads a meaningful home base.
In Stavanger, participants can expect:
Private studios and 1-, 2-, or 3-bedroom apartments, each with its own kitchen and bathroom.
Coworking areas within the same building, offering both quiet corners and social spaces.
A curated community of like-minded remote workers from across Europe and beyond.
Whether you join for one month or stay the full three, you’ll find the setup designed to help you focus, connect, and recharge — all while living at the pace of Nordic winter life.
From EUR 1,100 / month for a 3-month stay
Turning Winter Into an Adventure
Winter often means slowing down — but for remote workers, it’s also a chance to redefine what the season can be.
In Stavanger, that might mean working by candlelight while snow falls outside, joining your housemates for a weekend fjord hike, or taking a spontaneous trip to nearby islands when the sun appears.
It’s not just about escaping somewhere new; it’s about finding rhythm, inspiration, and balance in one of Europe’s most beautiful winter settings.
