Intro to Hiking - 25 May

Do you want to learn more about hiking and outdoor-life? Then this activity is perfect!

In collaboration with the Uppsala local branch of the Swedish Tourist Association (Svenska Turistföreningen - STF) and Student Health Service at Uppsala University, we invite you to a hike where you will learn what to consider before going out hiking, practical information about the right of way, equipment and other things that are good to keep in mind when going on an easy hiking trip

The hike is approximately 3 km long and goes through Hågadalen-Nåsten, which is a nature reserve right next to Eriksberg, Norby and Gottsunda. In Hågadalen there are fields and pastures and in the middle of the valley the Håga River winds its way. West of the valley is the forest area of ​​Nåsten. We hike over open pastures and through forests. The terrain is hilly in places, so for example a stroller is not suitable. We walk at a leisurely pace, take several breaks and STF's tour leaders Helene and Fredrik will tell you what to think about before you go out and hike, practical information about the right of way, equipment and other things that are good to keep in mind when going on an easier hiking trip. Perfect for those who would like to learn more about hiking and outdoor life - and of course you should also have a snack. After approximately 3 hours you will be back where you started. Bring your own snack, water, clothes for the weather and comfortable shoes. You will receive more information and the exact meeting point when you have registered. Maximum number of participants: 12. Warm welcome!
