About this experience

You wonder what to do in Stockholm? Join us for a hike in the beautiful nature of Stockholm forest. A one day hike for you to discover and learn about plants, wildlife, culture and history of Sweden.

Program:

Upon arrival we put on our woolly hats and start to flatten the snow under our steps. On the way we will have the chance to talk about plants, Scandinavian animals and the nature itself. We like to avoid the paths as much as possible as we want to show you the deepness of the forest and take you to our little secret spots.

We have a break around noon and take the chance to build a fire to warm up, to cook lunch and to enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee or tea afterwards.

It won't be long before the sun sets on the horizon so torch lamps will be needed. The afternoon is usually the best time to spot animals. If the temperatures allow us, we will walk on one of the frozen lakes on our way out of the nature reserve before returning to the city with a head full of memories.
