Schweden Süd Wanderführer

<p>Sweden evokes associations of vastness and untouched nature. Red wooden cottages are scattered between clear lakes, quiet, dark forests and bright green meadows. The tranquillity of the landscape and the friendliness of the Swedes make the country an ideal destination for holidaymakers seeking relaxation.</p><p>The 50 routes in this Rother hiking guide explore the diverse landscapes of southern Sweden. They range from park walks to cultural hikes to castles and prehistoric finds to lengthy forays through forests and fell landscapes. Some hikes lead through the lovely Småland, the home of Astrid Lindgren. The area around the capital Stockholm also offers interesting hiking opportunities - including in Ekopark, the world's first national city park, and in the archipelago, so that cultural interests can be combined with sport-oriented ambitions and nature experiences.</p><p>The exact route descriptions are supplemented by detailed maps with route entries and informative route profiles. Each route also contains important information on how to get there, where to stay and what to see. Many family-friendly day and half-day hikes focus on enjoying the landscape, but there are also challenging routes in remote areas.</p><p>The hiking guide has been carefully revised for the 5th edition. GPS tracks are available to download for almost all routes (except for tours 28 and 33).</p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Peter Mertz | Bergverlag Rother | 5.
