About the Canoe and Mountain bike tour:
This mixed tour is excellent for people with some outdoor experience and anyone who likes a bit of challenge. This tour will take you "of the beaten track". You come across very little civilisation and have the unspoilt nature of Sweden mostly to yourself. During the canoe tour you will pass many uninhabited islands and riverbanks that are worth exploring and where you can spend the night. The bike tour takes you through tick forest and goes mostly over unpaved roads. With some luck you can spot deer, moose, crane birds or other wild animals during this trip. The 8-day trip is based on an easy pace with plenty of room to swim, fish, light a fire and explore the many uninhabited islands and riverbanks.
From Värmlandsgården you paddle for a few days in northern direction over several large lakes in the border area of the provinces of Värmland and Dalarna. The canoe trip ends at Tyngsjö Vildmark. After a stay at Tyngsjö Vildmark, the bike tour takes you south again along various waterways and through dense forests.
