Trail-running 2023?

There is always a lot of activities ongoing in the mountains. During the summer and autumn some trails have been upgraded. At Kungsleden the part between Singi and Kaitumjare has been one of them. We can also see the fantastic work with the trail to Kebnekaise south peak with stairs and trail markings. But there are still some more to do. A trail from Sälen in south towards Treriksröset in north was about to get established. In 2021 The Lapland-trail was consecrated. What is left now is a trail from Gäddede and Skäckerfjällen and from Storlien towards Skäckerfjällen. This two areas will be difficult to get in place due to it will affect almost all of the sami village in the area. There are very few trails in the area today. So this will take time. But we look forward to this, All long-haulers will applaud it whet it will be in place…

With just 6 weeks ahead to this years advent calendar, I am planning for the upcoming summer tours. I am planning a trail-running camp in Swedish Lapland or Jämtland. So if you longing for running free in the mountain environment contact us for more information.

This week I will test two different product. One head lamp from Silva and a pair of tactical pants from Helicon-Tex. But let us begin with the head lamp. The plan is to do a Trail run at Saturday and than the lamp will be ”battle” tested. I needed a lamp for trail running in a cross-country race. My choice landed on the Silva trail speed 5R. The weight is 178g, maximum light will be 1200Lm. The battery will long for 3 hours on the highest choice. So I will respond on this a week ahead… The pant this week is from the brand Helicon-Tex. This is used in police and militarily forces. I have tested a couple of the brands apparel before and I am satisfied. This pant will be really interesting to test. With about 120km each week with the dog I will for sure get a good opinion of the pants…
