RAVEN'S EYE HIKING ADVENTURE

7 days/6 nights

Your trip beings in Östersund with a trip north to the tiny village of Jorm, passing numerous mountain lakes and the occassional reindeer on the way. You start your adventure with a nice warm-up hike in the vicinity of Jorm. Our Icelandic, four-legged friends join us on on the third day as you head out into the high country for two nights of wilderness camping. Without heavy backpacks, you can look around and enjoy the surroundings on the trek. We hike through the rolling hills and mountains of northern Jämtland, close to the border of Norway. This region is known for its flora and fauna and since the bedrock is rich in calcium oxide, our journey offers many surprises. You wander accross areas where the Sami people graze their reindeer, and there's a good chance to track both the reindeer and the predator's rampage. While on the trek all of our meals are cooked over an open fire and we enjoy reindeersteaks, moose and many other local products. Upon returning to Jorm, you are presented with many options on a day of leisure - another day of hiking, a day of caving one of Sweden's longest limestone caves (not for the claustrophobic!) or a day of horseback riding. With all the great ingredients, this trip is a recipe for the perfect adventure.
