Swedens Activities
There is no end of exciting things to do and see during your visit to Sweden
-- at any time of year. Because winter, temperatures are typically warmer than
they are in many U.S. cities, Sweden is an ideal place to experience the
season's traditional activities without the climactic extremes found elsewhere.
For many, simply taking in the vibrant cultural life of Stockholm and it's
surrounds is more than enough. For others, the entire country, in all its
natural beauty, its local color, and its pristine grandeur, holds an attraction
that cannot be ignored. There are a number of ways to explore and to experience
this larger Sweden - here are just a few of them: In the rugged expanses of the
Swedish north is found Europe's last remaining wilderness region, an area of
stunning vistas and crisp clean air that is sheer heaven for trekking,
whitewater rafting, ice climbing, alpine and cross-country skiing, and much
more. The Allemansratten, or the Right of Public Access, insures that all the
land is accessible provided that you respect nature and other people's privacy.
Sweden is filled with great biking and riding trails, including most notable the
1,597 mile-long Sweden Trail.
