Hiking tour through the Swedish wilderness

Guided hiking tour through the Malingsbo - Kloten Nature Reserve's wilderness. A pristine and wild natural area that has not been touched by civilization. The Scandinavian pine forest along the hiking trail is thick, dense and a popular retreat for many wild animals.

The hiking tour starts at Nordic Discovery's Adventure Center in the small village Kloten and finish with sauna and swimming in the lake, in the small village Nyfors. At the half-way point, we stop for a wilderness picnic lunch. To the picnic we listen to an experienced and knowledgeable wildlife tracker who let us know about the wild animals in the forest (At rare occasions the tour can be lead by trained outdoor tourism students at the end of their period of training ). On the hike we pass the Grass Hill, the highest point in the Malingsbo - Kloten Nature Reserve. The hiking distance is 13 km.
