WHY TRAVEL WITH US ?
Certified guides
All tours are guided by certified guides Mountainleader SFLO.
Local guides
The guides live in the north of Dalarna where most of our trips is carried out. That means that they have a extremely good knowledge of the area, current conditions but also that they pay there taxes to the local economy which contributes to people in the sparsely populated areas being able to have school, healthcare and social care
Community
With several of our guests we have a long relationship. Some of them join us for more adventures others ask for advice to do adventures of there own and we are always willing to help.
Sustainability
We travel in small groups of up to 10 people for both the quality for your experience and to make less impact on nature. We know current conditions and can adapt to take into account wildlife, reindeers and other factors that need special consideration. A lot of what we buy for both our life in the north of Dalarna and for our guide business are from local stores.
