Midsummer magic and lucky magic are brought together on that tour and create memories for life. We aim high and choose to follow mountain ridges, over peaks, along murmuring streams in the Swedish-Norwegian area of Grövelsjöfjällen
Welcome on a unique and partly demanding hike in the Nordic and magical midsummer light. We promise that few have just chosen the path we hike on this tour that only partially follows hiking trails. Hike over peaks, follow mountain ridges, slopes not for a little steeper adventure. We swim in icy mountain waters, eat, laugh, enjoy, fight, have coffee, rest but most of all we hike in the Swedish and Norwegian terrain of Grövelsjöfjällen. Start and finish at STF Grövelsjön Mountain Station which opens up while we are out on tour. Just in time for our return, they have set up for midsummer lunch, dancing around the bar and strawberry cake. It will be a perfect ending to this adventure.

Since 2018 we live at the foot of the mountain Fjätervålen close to the kind of nature we love to travel and stay in. Fjätervålen can be found north of Idre near the border with Härjedalen. We ourselves think that this is a prefect base for adventures along the Scandinavian mountain chain and its surrounding forests.
**THE WAY HERE? **
It is difficult to summarize how it is that today I live and work in the mountains as a guide, ski instructor and more or less full-time I devote myself to outdoor activities. A big contributor in addition to my passion for it are the people around me who have contributed in many different ways and others I have met who have inspired, shared their knowledge and sometimes opened doors. The fact that I also have a wife, Elin, who has as much interest in this as I do is absolutely crucial to the fact that today we live and live at the foot of the mountain Fjäervåle. Elin is my best adventure companion. My mother, who for much of my upbringing was the one who created the opportunity for me to devote myself to sports and outdoor activities, however, laid the foundation for everything I do now. Don't know how she managed it and my awareness of this has grown the older I've gotten. Through a developing career path from carpenter, university studies, real estate engineer, manager in various companies, part-time guiding to the fact that today I am almost full-time dedicated to guiding, ski coaching and other outdoor activities is magical for me and I am so grateful that my life is filled with days like these.
