The clouds were low in the morning, but it wasn’t raining any more. I was going to do a hike to Pyramiderna (the Pyramids) and the Issjödalen valley but since I had the whole day on me, I wasn’t in a hurry to leave while there wasn’t much landscape to be seen. So I just…

Many many years ago I heard about a geological formation called Pyramiderna (the Pyramids) in the Vålådalen nature reserve. I’ve wanted to see them ever since, but as always, I just don’t get it done. About four years ago I even drew a route, but I still didn’t get the actual trip done. And when…

Because it’s not summer until I’ve had a waffle at Djupdalsvallen!

After some heavy hiking in the Alps, it is nice to be back on our gentle fjälls and take it slow and just enjoy the trek. Today’s activity was to check out a waterfall I found out about recently, the Fallmoran waterfall in Vemdalsskalet. It was a 4 km hike from the Storhogna hotel, and coming…

It was raining yesterday so I went on a road trip in search of better weather, and found it – too good, in fact. I ended up in Frösö Zoo (which I visited 3 years ago), and needed a whole lot of tricks to handle the chain link fences in sunshine, until the sun disappeared behind…

Well, guess what. Here I am again. Exhausted. And now it’s worse than ever before, I’ve had this weird thing all week. On Monday I was really tired, I mean more tired than after Njupeskär. Then on Tuesday, I felt an itch in my throat, which normally always means that I’m going to have a…

Since I got my new mountainbike, I’ve been wanting to do a bike & hike trip. Rödsjövålen was a good candidate for that, there’s a double-track road from Backvallsvägen to Östvallen, where you continue on foot to get to the top of Rödsjövålen. 17 km by bike, 8 km by foot (return trip). No problems, I…

I’ve mentioned it a few times that I’m now doing things instead of just endlessly planning them. The change started about four years ago but after mom died, it just made me even more determined. I do not want to die regretting a life not lived. So if you’ve read my blog, you will have…

I’m the queen of planning. And not doing. If I come up with a thing I would like to do, a place I want to see, I can spend hours on finding out the best way of doing it. And then never do it. But now it’s changing – 2017 is the year of experiences for…
