Hiking In Paradise

Hiking In Paradise

This is Yankee and Nike, Josefin and Erik. They are out on a five day trek on the Sörmland Trail. I met them near Lake Rudan on Friday, and that was their next stop. It was a very warm day so they were planning to go for a cooling swim in one of the lakes. They started the hike at Björkhagen in Stockholm on Wednesday. Their goal is to walk to Paradise, or Paradiset in Swedish. It's a very popular destination for hikers. Josefin and Erik are from Stockholm, but they live in Linköping at the moment, where Erik is studying to become a psychologist. Josefin works as a teacher. As I am typing this they will be on their way home again.

  1. So strange to hear about people trying to 'cool off' when it's so cold here Steffe. I know quite a few people that would love to hike around your neck of the woods. Have a great Sunday.
