Highs & Lows
You should definitely canoe on the beautiful lakes!
There are a lot of mosquitoes, so even though it’s hot you should wear covering clothes
Itinerary Overview
We arrived around noon in Oslo and rented a car to drive to Sweden. The first night we stayed in a very basic cabin in the mountains (close to Lekvattnet) and the next nights we stayed in an Airbnb in Lekvattnet. Our Airbnb host fixed the night in the basic cabin in the mountains for us as the Airbnb itself wasn’t available yet. The wooden cabin was situated in the middle of nowhere and gave us the real “back to basics” experience. When staying in the Airbnb itself we only had to cross the streets to reach the lake and enjoy the beautiful sunsets. We went hiking, canoeing, swimming, and mountain biking
this was a great adventure where we enjoyed the family and nature, a vacation full of calm and good energy. !

Bring covering clothes to protect against mosquitoes and others insects.

Again, covering clothes and other things against the mosquitoes

Lodging
