  • Part two of three was hiked from the 5th to the 8th of June 2023 and covers 90km of the total 355km.
    Fighting through grueling strecthes of blockfield, ice cold winds and enjoying beautiful sunny weather made my first trip through Rogen Naturreservat very special.
    It was simply one of my best hiking experiences to walk on ridges in between huge rocks and ancient trees hosting glowing wolf lichens surrounded by lakes in all shapes.
    About Södra Kungsleden
    Södra Kungsleden is the result of a non-succesful attempt to extent Kungsleden to stretch through the entire Swedish mountain range.
    Hence, its name is only officially used in Dalarna, though you sporadically will see signs with its crown-symbol along the northern half of the route as well.
    It is possible to stock up food in Flötningen, Ramundberget and in certain STF cabins. However, the store in Ramundberget as well as the STF cabins are only open seasonally and were closed at the time of my trip.
    Information about the trail is sparse. Länsstyrelsens folder (available online) covers the part in Dalarna, while a Swedish (Lars Magnusson "Vandra i Sverige") and German (Michael Hennemann "Scweden: Kungsleden) contains information about the entire route.
    Feel free to ask any questions if you are thinking about doing the trail.

    Hey, great videos! I am thinking of hiking the trail this august. what was the longest duration without the possibility of resupply? Flötningen and Ramundberget doesn't sound like many opportunities. How many STF cabins will have food, do you know by any chance? Thank you in advance :)
