The natural wonders of Sweden seem to be never ending.\u00a0 There are the gorgeous forests of southern Sweden, the archipelago of Stockholm, the mountains of northern Sweden.\u00a0 Countless rivers and lakes and islands dot the landscape.\u00a0 It\u2019s beautiful.\u00a0 And it\u2019s open to everyone.<\/p>\n
Allemansr\u00e4tten is the right to public access.\u00a0 It essentially gives people the right to camp just about anywhere in Sweden for a night or two as long as nature is not disturbed (or the land owner for that matter).\u00a0 It\u2019s the classic leave no trace philosophy extended and thus opening up an entire country to whoever wants to take advantage.\u00a0 And it\u2019s amazing.\u00a0 If you\u2019ve got yourself a tent, a sleeping bag, and enough provisions to last a night or two, there is no better get away.\u00a0 It\u2019s how I found myself waking up to the sun rise on a lake formed by a meteor millions of years ago.\u00a0 One of those moments I will never forget.<\/p>\n
I have never been to northern Sweden. I lived in Stockholm for three years and the farthest north I made it was \u00d6stersund.\u00a0 Kind of north, but not Arctic Circle north.\u00a0 I\u2019ve explored islands, I\u2019ve sailed the archipelago, I\u2019ve camped on a lake in Dalarna, but I never made it to the Arctic Circle.\u00a0 The Arctic summer is calling for me though.\u00a0 One day, someday, but it will have to wait.\u00a0 Luckily, I know that I will have Allemansr\u00e4tten there waiting for me.<\/p>\n
