Immerse yourself in the heart of Sweden’s Glaskogen Nature Reserve, a wild maze of forests, lakes, and endless horizons. For 6 days, hike through one of Scandinavia’s most peaceful wilderness areas. By day, move through the forests. By night, hang by the fire, swapping stories with fellow adventurers.
Begin your adventure in Arvika, where you’ll meet your fellow adventurers and guides before heading deep into the Swedish wilderness. After a gear and safety briefing, the real journey starts. Your first hike cuts through quiet forest trails and opens up to the kind of still-water views Sweden is known for. Tonight, learn how to set up your hammock beneath the trees, share a forest-cooked meal under the open sky, and bond over a storey that has only just begun.
Wake to birdsong drifting across the pines. After breakfast, move farther into Glaskogen’s wilderness. Trails weave between lakes, wooden bridges, and soft forest paths. The pace is steady, the silence real, and the wilderness becomes your backdrop for the entire day. Spend another night of hammock camping in the wild as you start learning the ropes. Find the perfect place to hang tight for the night.
By now, the forest starts to feel familiar. The pace becomes natural. Today brings mixed terrain, shaded forests, and beautiful streams. If the weather allows, jump into one of Glaskogen’s cold, clear lakes, a true Scandinavian reset. Evening brings campfire warmth and shared stories, the kind that always come easier after a long day outdoors.
Fuel up and push towards higher viewpoints. The landscape shifts as you continue your hike, with panoramic views and Swedish wilderness in every direction. This is one of the trip’s most rewarding hiking days. By nightfall, the group feels tight-knit. By now you’re a hammocking expert.
On your last full day in the wild, cover your final stretch of trail before reaching your last camp, a quiet, scenic spot. Spend the afternoon swimming, wandering around camp, or simply resting in your hammock as the forest settles around you.
One last morning hike brings you back to the world you knew, giving you time to soak in the final views of Glaskogen’s lakes and forests before heading back to Arvika, reflecting on the memories you want to hang on to.
