The Nordic countries are wonderful destinations for walking and trekking, with excellent hiking to be had the length and breadth of their vast landscapes. They have magnificent scenery, fresh air and clean water - and something very precious in the modern world: tranquility. You may find the silence broken only by the cry of an eagle, the hooting of an owl or the bark of a moose.
Nature Travels offers a wide range of self-guided and guided hiking tours with varying levels of challenge. Self-guided hiking tours are perfect if you're travelling with one or more companions, while our guided tours are ideal for solo travellers as well as those travelling with others.
"The purest of outdoor pursuits! Fresh air, beautiful scenery, powered only by your own two feet (oh, and of course your favourite hiking boots, a couple of trekking poles and that lovely new backpack you bought for the trip!).
Hiking gets you close to nature and reminds you what it means to be alive. The Nordic countries offer some of the best hiking in the world, from dramatic mountains to quiet forests, very often with a lake not far off to cool your toes along the way!"

In Sweden, explore the mighty wilderness around Abisko on a guided wild camping expedition, discover some of the thousands of islands that make up the Stockholm Archipelago with a choice of self-guided, island hopping tours between guesthouses with luggage transfers, or experience the unique and dramatic landscapes of the High Coast with day hikes from cabin base.
North Karelia in Eastern Finland is the setting for our guesthouse-based hiking tour, with a wonderful base for daily guided hikes in beautiful locations combined with local hospitality and award-winning traditional cuisine.
In addition to our "dedicated" hiking experiences, we also offer a range of multi-activity options which incorporate hiking as part of the itinerary.
Depending on the tour you choose, you could find yourself canoeing, packrafting, cycling or taking some huskies for a walk!
