Calazo Hiking in the Åre Mountains
This book describes nearly forty hikes that you can reach in one day starting from Åre. In the easily accessible Åre Mountains, there are experiences for all tastes – whether you want to take a selfie at the top of Åreskutan or enjoy the tranquility by a babbling mountain stream.
The suggested tours in the book often take you off the most established trails, along paths that can be difficult to find for those who are not from the area. Many of the tours are also excellent for mountain running. In addition to the hikes in the book, you also get a lot of tips for other excursions, such as to nice natural pools or local attractions.
The book is divided into two parts: Åre and Södra Årefjällen. In the Åre part you will find hikes around Duved, Åre village and Björnen. In the part describing the southern Årefjällen you will find hikes starting from Edsåsdalen, Trillevallen, Ottsjö, Vallbo and Vålådalen.
The author Håkan Wike is a freelance writer and lives in Östersund. He has previously worked as editor-in-chief of the magazine Utemagasinet. Håkan hopes that the book will encourage more people to venture off the beaten track and discover more of what the Åre area has to offer.
Calazo
Calazo gör kartor och böcker för dig som gör toppturer, glaciärvandringar eller på annat sätt följer färdvägar på högre höjd. Deras högalpina kartor har en detaljrikedom som aldrig tidigare funnits över något område i svenska fjällen.
Teknik i alla ära, men att ha fysiska kartor med på fjället är fortfarande länken mellan liv och död i vissa lägen, och än så länge saknar i alla fall vi batterier som klarar kylan på fjället.
