Hike Sweden

Southern Sweden’s Skåne area offers more than 600 miles of trails organized into 80 different day hikes. Most trails pass through private land open to hikers, others pass through villages and nature reserves, and some follow Bronze Age petroglyphs.

Six trail maps are available at SEK150 (near $23) each, including shipping. Two maps describe biking trails.
