Daily tour schedule
Day 1
Your journey begins with the exciting task of outfitting everyone with camping gear and getting to know yourselves as you board the night train from Stockholm, setting the course northward. Travelling by sleeper train ensures you're well-rested for the adventures ahead.
Day 2
Early in the morning, you disembark the train and jump on a brief bus ride to reach Skulleskogen National Park, where your hiking expedition begins. Throughout the day, the knowledgeable guide leads you through the picturesque forest, unveiling the area's highlights.
By late afternoon, you arrive at the coast, establishing camp for the night. Here, you cook dinner on an open fire and enjoy some storytelling.
You eagerly anticipate glimpses of the northern lights (of course, you need some luck to do so). For the energetic souls, there's the option to explore parts of the coast (without the heavy backpack) before nightfall.
Day 3
Following yesterday's exploits, you relish a leisurely start to the morning, savoring breakfast and coffee against the backdrop of breathtaking campsite views.
Your journey continues with further exploration of the highlights of Skulleskogen National Park, culminating in your second forest campsite. After dinner, exhaustion from the day's adventures likely ushers in early slumber, preparing you for tomorrow's early rise.
Day 4
You start this day early by hiking the short way back to the bus station where you arrived two days before and start your trip back to Stockholm. As this train goes during the daytime, you have the chance to enjoy the landscapes that the Swedish countryside has to offer.
