Come to the big outdoors

Depending on which time of year you come to Sweden think ‘outdoor activities’. In wintertime, Sweden is a haven for winter sports such as skiing, skating and ice climbing. While in spring and summertime you can enjoy trekking, mountaineering, white-water rafting, canoeing, sailing and many other adrenaline-filled pursuits.

Central and northern Sweden are dotted with winter and year-round resorts where you can enjoy skiing, dog-sledding, snow scooters, white water rafting and hiking, to mention just a few. From trekking in the serene wilderness that is Sarek National Park to pitching camp with the Sami, the indigenous people of Swedish Lapland, Sweden offers unique outdoors activities, landscapes and experiences.

Hiking & Trekking - Dreaming of Sweden

Sweden is a ‘dream landscape’ for hiking and trekking, from the untamed wilderness of Sarek National Park in the far north, to the enchanted forest and lakes of the south.

What makes Swedish Lapland unique and so special is that it is the last unspoiled wilderness in Europe. You can experience these Arctic Circle landscapes, flora and fauna in their natural state.
