The publisher writes:

Imagine your very own trip in what resembles a wilderness in sparsely populated forests, and your own camp with crackling campfires and campfire cooking, while the sun sets over the forest lake. Unlike most of Denmark, the Swedish nature is characterized by rocks, which makes the nature distinctly different from the Danish. In the Swedish forest, we encounter a troll-like landscape with vast, airy forests with green moss and blueberries on the ground, and the forest landscape is crossed by streams and small and large lakes.

Sweden, which is close to many Danes, is a unique hiking area with a different natural form than what we find in Denmark, and the Swedish Right of Public Access means that in Sweden you are actually allowed to roam and camp wherever you want, as long as you do not enter people’s gardens.

The free nature of southern Sweden offers many marked hiking trails with nice shelter sites for overnight stays. At the same time, Southern Sweden is an ideal place to hike in the months when the season and your own time do not allow for long mountain hikes. For many of us, Southern Sweden is a favorite area for weekend trips year-round, and it’s not only the marked trails that attract. There are good opportunities to go your own way off the paths in the large Swedish forests, where lakes and streams provide the basis for unique “bush camps,” completely undisturbed by others and close to water for cooking.

The book is about how you can set off alone or together with good hiking friends. How you learn to navigate off the trails, and how you find the best spots and the most remote hiking routes either on the trails or off them or as a combination.

You learn to read the hidden possibilities of the outdoor map, and you learn how to find the perfect route through the terrain to the beautiful overnight spots from home. You also get instructions on how to plan and anticipate possible and unknown obstacles on your way. Obstacles you must tackle to move forward, but which also make your trip a true pioneering journey.
