Key Information
Day 1
Head out into the wilderness
Hiking
Meet your host at Köping station and head to a secret location, deep in the pine forests of central Sweden. Explore your boreal wonderland and stretch your legs with a short hike to get to know the inhabitants of the Taiga ecosystem, hearing about the importance of forest biodiversity and a healthy ecosystem. You’ll forage for berries and mushrooms on the forest floor, and learn how to use these wild ingredients to cook delicious food. During your downtime throughout this adventure, there'll also be opportunities to learn bushcraft skills, such as wood-carving. Enjoy dinner around the campfire and a chat with your guide before hitting the hay for a night under the stars.
Day 2
Search for the grey wolf
Yoga
Wildlife Tracking
Wake up to a spot of forest yoga before breakfast (for those who are keen, it's not compulsory!), and stretch out after your night of camping. Today is all about the grey wolves that roam freely through the forest: learn all about their behaviour, their history, and the important role they play in rewilding as a keystone species. You’ll also learn about the Scandinavian Wolf Project, and the conservation efforts currently in place to protect the wolves. Later, you’ll head out to an area where a family of wolves keep their territory to search for paw prints, killed prey and droppings. As dusk falls and the forest comes alive, you'll set out on a torchlight hike, listening out for the unmistakable howls.
Day 3
Moose tracking, wild swimming and a sauna
Yoga
Wildlife Tracking
Wild Swimming
Begin with another daybreak yoga session followed by some bushcraft training. After honing your outdoor skills, you’ll head deeper into the wilds on a mission to meet the ‘king of the forest’ – the magnificent, and massive, moose. Learn how to track them by looking out for bite marks, hoof prints and fresh droppings. In the afternoon, you’ll escape to a secluded lake for a wild swim and to enjoy an age-old Scandinavian tradition, a wood-fired sauna. Then it’s back to camp to make a fire and cook some dinner – eyes peeled for roe deer, mountain hares, wolves and even lynx, along the way.
Day 4
Your wild adventure ends
Unzip your tent, waking up in the wilds of Sweden for the last time. After tucking into breakfast and a steaming cup of coffee, you’ll pack down and leave your secret location, ready for the drive back to Köping station in time for your train ride on to Stockholm.

What is the food like?
Meals are an all-hands-on-deck experience, from cooking to cleaning up. The meals will be prepared and cooked by the group over an open fire. The food on this trip is not only delicious, but also utilises local and freshly foraged ingredients whenever possible. All of the meals will be vegetarian with local root vegetables, beans, grains and grilled cheese. There will also be eggs and free-range lamb sausages available, from a nearby farm. You will forage some of the ingredients yourself, including juniper, blueberries and chanterelles (depending on the season), all of which will find a creative place in a scrumptious dish.
Given this trip is in such a remote location, it can challenging to accommodate alternative dietary requirements. However, you can always opt for vegetarian (many of the meals will already be vegetarian), and gluten-free can be accommodated as long as you let your host know in advance.
What is the accommodation like?
Wild Camping
You will spend three nights wild camping deep in the forest in a twin or single tent. The exact location is kept a secret – your guide will explain why. Each tent is equipped with an inflatable mat, sheets, pillow, pillow cover and sleeping bag. A long-drop toilet is available near to the camp; there won't be a shower, but you'll have the option to swim in lakes on a daily basis and to take a tent sauna. You'll have hammocks hanging around the camp and be cooking together over an open fire.
Upgrades
Tents are twin share by default but if you would like a single tent, this can be arranged at no extra cost. Just let your host know when booking.
This trip has been rated as Easy
This is an easy adventure which can be managed and enjoyed by anyone with basic fitness levels. You'll be hiking for a few hours each day, however there are plenty of stops as you wait silently with binoculars to view the various wildlife, and hopefully a wolf pack or two. Note that the long hours of daylight during June and July mean that you have to stay out until late tracking wildlife, often until after midnight. No previous experience of forest yoga or wild camping is required.
On some occasions there may be short sections of walking on off-trail terrain where it can be rough, rocky, mossy, wet and slippery. Such walks may even take place in darkness (with head torches) but the pace is slow, with stops along the way and rarely last for more than an hour.
On a typical day in July and August temperatures are between 15-25°C. During the evening tracking adventures you hike through the forest and temperatures will be between 10-15°C. In September, you can expect temperatures to be about 5°C lower than this. The undergrowth is often damp, so waterproof shoes or boots are essential to avoid wet and cold feet.
A weekend to unplug
A thoroughly enjoyable trip, with a lovely group of people and a fantastic guide. So many beautiful moments throughout the weekend; from lake swimming to bushcraft, howling wolves to campfire food. The trip will stay with me for a long time. Highly recommendable
Outstanding few days from the
Outstanding few days from the very start to the very end. The entire weekend ran on rails and exceeded my expectations. Would recommend to anyone with the love of the outdoors.
A trip thats good for the soul
It was an absolutely amazing trip! The highlight for me was the wild swimming in the lake—such a peaceful and invigorating experience. I also loved sitting around the campfire with a like-minded group, sharing stories under the stars. But the most unforgettable moment was hearing the wolves howl at night—it was magical and something I’ll remember forever. We were even lucky enough to see a moose at night, which was the perfect end to an incredible adventure.
I left feeling closer to nature
On Simon's signal, we undo our seat belts and silently slide the doors of the van open before hopping out, A-Team style. As we stand as still as the silhouetted pines, Simon howls into the forest. We hold our breath. The stars glint, distant lightning flashes. After what feels like a lifetime, the wolves howl in response - adults and pups yelping into the night. We walk to the edges of the cold, dark lake and there, we see the fresh pawprint of a pup, wet on a stone.
This trip was absolutely awesome - we swam in the lake at our camp, foraged for lingonberries and bilberries, carved wooden butterknives, and watched a family of moose eating in the forest.
Food is excellent and Simon is the most wonderful guide. Cannot recommend this trip enough!!
One tip, though: bring mozzie spray, a buff to cover your face from the mozzies, and don't just wear leggings - you need walking trousers, as the bugs will bite you through your leggings!
We thoroughly enjoyed our adventure
We thoroughly enjoyed our adventure in the Swedish wilderness. Our guides, Simon and Sofia, were so friendly, knowledgeable and well organised. Their passion for their jobs is so clear. Hearing the wolves howling and seeing moose roaming was absolutely amazing.
The information provided in advance is spot on and I don’t feel like there was anything else I needed to know.
I was happy sleeping in the tent and kept dry and warm at all times (even with some rain), and slept soundly on the airbed and the very nice sleeping bag provided.
The itinerary does state wild tracking, so don’t expect to actually see a wolf, they are not in large packs like you see on TV, they are clever and keep out of sight.
The food was delicious and healthy, and I was impressed with how organised everything was considering we were in the middle of nowhere. Catering for 12 is difficult even when you have a kitchen.
The swimming and camp sauna added to the whole experience and cooking on campfire each day was lovely, I’ve been home 5 days and I miss it. Thank you to the Much Better Adventures and Wild Sweden team, a truly amazing experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.
Everything and more in 24 hours!
What a fantastic trip! We saw / heard it all: moose, wolves and beavers. Highly recommend the fabulous tour guides and their encyclopaedic knowledge of Swedish wildlife. Would book again in a heartbeat.
Had a truly wonderful trip
Had a truly wonderful trip with Sofia and Simon, every detail was well thought out and they delivered an excellent wild camping experience. Not to brag but we successfully tracked wolves and moose, and a few extra surprises; being immersed in such a rich habitat will stay with me for a long time. Anyone with basic fitness would love this trip, the hikes were straightforward and we had a good balance of activities and down time to enjoy the wild swimming and sauna. I always meet like minded people on this sort of holiday, great to connect in the old fashioned way, chatting round a campfire
What an amazing trip. The
What an amazing trip. The site next to the lake was simply beautiful and perfect for both dawn and midnight swims. Marcus is a very knowledgeable guide and his enthusiasm for the wolves and all flora and fauna cannot be matched. Christiana's warm and welcoming tones also made everyone feel at ease. A great group of like minded people, everyone got on and we left as friends. Thank you Much Better Adventures, your adventures are indeed.. much better!!
Adventure and recovery
Marcus, with his passion for the forest and all that lives in it, and Christiana, with her calm and culinary expertise, make a great team. For me, it was the perfect combination of adventure and recovery. Best moments were the walks at dusk, swimming in the lake, the sauna, hearing the wolves howl, watching moose, chatting round the fire, learning to call like a moose, and getting to know a really interesting bunch of people. The inflatable sleeping mat was comfy so I slept pretty well. Bring a sleeping mask if you get disturbed by dawn light. There are mosquitoes at times, so be prepared. They do have mosquito hats but I would have brought my own if I'd known, just in case. I went home with 5 bites just on my forehead. Fortunately the memories of this wonderful trip will last much longer than the itching!
Amazing trip
What a wonderful trip - I just wish it had lasted longer! Tracking the wolves and seeing fresh paw prints was one of many highlights. Watching a moose with her two young calves playing was incredible! Simon shared his passion for wildlife and looked after us so well. Plenty of time to relax too with a lovely lake to swim in right by the camp. And comfortable camping (from the view of a non-camper). Not sure if it was luck but a lovely group to spend time with.
Great trip
I travelled with my 19 year old son. Simon (our host) made us feel so welcome, and his passion for wildlife and the forests is infectious. He was so kind to everyone, managing different ages and abilities. The tracking of wolves and moose was SO interesting. We learned so much. There some down time in the days and you can use that time to learn to carve your own spoon, swim in the beautiful lake, read in a hammock, sleep or chat to your fellow campmates. We had the BEST group and an amazing time.
Iconic unique adventure!
Simon was lovely, so much work behind the scenes to make our trip so effortlessly smooth. Simon is super knowledgeable, practical and kind. You always feel safe and relaxed with him in charge. Amazing food and coffee as well! I loved this adventure because we did something so exciting and adventurous but also was so well paced that you went back to work also feeling refreshed and reconnected.
Marvellous adventure in the wilds of Sweden!
This wolf tracking and wild swimming adventure was everything I'd hoped it would be. Our guide, Simon, was excellent, making all seven members of our group feel included and valued. His relaxed and calm manner helped create a lovely vibe. He shared his love of Swedish nature with us, and we had a wonderful time tracking moose and wolves. A highlight for me was hearing Simon howl in an attempt to get a response from the wolves! The food was very good and varied, and we had enough time to relax and go swimming in our private lake! We hiked a couple of hours each day, which was totally within reach of all of us in the group. The wood carving was fun, and the chats around the fire each evening were really nice. I highly recommend this tour to anyone. If a sixty-year-old like me can do this trip, anyone can!
Incredible trip but not for the faint hearted. I had such an incredible time on this holiday adventure, the group was amazing and I couldnt have asked for a better guide. If you have any reservations about your fitness, this is not the trip for you though. 900m inclines straight up!
I loved this trip so much! Couldn’t recommend Marcus and Christiana more!
The location was the most perfect, tranquil, remote lakeside camp. The food, all cooked over campfire, was fantastic. Tracking wolves through the forest in the pitch dark and being lucky enough to hear them respond to our guide’s howl was an experience to remember. All in all a fantastic trip and highly recommended!
We had the best time living in the Swedish wilderness for 3 nights with our amazing guides and group. Highlights were standing in the dark in the forest and hearing wolves howling all around us, staking out and seeing moose, chilling around the campfire, woodcarving, picking mushrooms and berries, eating delicious camp food, living in the woods. I can’t wait to go back!
Marcus and Christiana were awesome hosts - knowledgeable, gracious, kind and filled with a passion for nature. I had such a lovely time as a camping newbie, and never once felt out of my depth. Lying amidst the heather hearing the wolves howl was an ethereal experience and I enjoyed hiking through the forests and the bogs foraging for berries and mushrooms! I highly recommend the tour to everyone!
My husband and I had an amazing time, spending time in the forests of Sweden was really relaxing/refreshing . It was brilliant to have a break from modern comforts/distractions to take the time to really experience the beautiful surroundings. We had everything we needed, the food was lovely, the hosts Marcus and Christiana we’re absolutely brilliant and the pace of the trip was relaxed we had set times for meals, hikes, yoga, moose and wolf watching but free/flexible time to work on wood carvings or saunas and wild swimming. The wolves howling and wild swimming were my highlights but I don’t want to give too much away! Just know both of us loved it and would go again!
A wonderful trip, highly recommend it. Marcus and Christiana are very knowledgeable hosts. They looked after us really well and adapted the trip to circumstances. The good was wonderful. Camping in the Swedish woods was everything I hoped for, the silence was astounding. Time at camp was wonderful and included a sauna and swimming in the lake. The time out looking for wolves and moose was a wonderful experience and hearing the wolves howl so close to us is something I won't forget. I was cautious as a single traveller but I learnt so much with a lovely group of people.
This was a wonderful few days in the stunningly beautiful wilds of Sweden! Marcus & Christiana were fantastic hosts, they did so many things to make the experience extra special. Marcus is a very knowledgeable and experienced guide, and I learnt so much about Swedish wildlife and conservation. The food was all delicious. The camp was in a beautiful setting and time spent here was rejuvenating, I loved the hammocks, sauna, and swimming in the lake. As the wolf and moose tracking activities were mostly in the evenings, I really appreciated being able to take some time to relax a little earlier in the day. The walks out were well paced with Marcus constantly pointing out things of interest. The excitement of tracking the moose was rewarded when we saw several! Wolves are harder to see but after a long wait we heard a whole family howling very close to us, this was a spine-tingling experience and well worth the wait! It was an ideal trip as a single female, with a small group of likeminded people who very quickly became friends. I would love to do it again!
It's hard to explain just how awesome this adventure is. Amazing scenery, wildlife, food and company made for one the best adventures I've done in a long time. You just can't put a price on listening to howling wolves, gazing at the milky way or swimming in a picture-perfect lake. Marcus and Christiana are really inspiring guides, and the range of activities is extremely wholesome. Do it!
This weekend in the forests of Sweden was perfect, and surpassed my expectations. Marcus and Christiana were wonderful hosts who's enthusiasm for the environment and wildlife was truly inspiring. The equipment and set up were great, really well organized and everything had a focus on sustainability and respect for the environment. The whole experience was excellent, and hearing wolves howl in the night is not something I will soon forget, and I cant wait to book my next trip!
The trip was absolutely fantastic. We saw so much and fitted so much in, but it still felt relaxed and with enough downtime to take it all in. An incredible highlight was hearing wolves howl back in response to our guides - spine tingling! Marcus and Christiana were expert guides and fabulous hosts, and created a great itinerary that flexed to the needs of the group and the weather! Very sustainable approach and the kit and food was topnotch. I'd give this trip 6 stars if I could - highly recommended.
The location is beautiful and organization was excellent. Marcus, the guide, is very knowledgeable and nice. The site and the lake couldn't be better. The food Christian made was excellent. In other words, excellent and enjoyable experience. Best choice for me.
It was a brilliant trip from start to finish! Managing to slow down in such beautiful surroundings was exactly what we needed. Getting to see and hear various animals in their own environment, whilst having the peace of mind that we weren't disturbing them was magical. Marcus, our guide was so knowledgeable about the forest and the animals, it was a joy to listen to him talk about subjects he is clearly passionate about
Being out and doing things like the foraging, carving and cooking was so much fun! The swimming and tent sauna were amazing.
Overall such a fantastic experience.

… Per person
We partner with the World Land Trust to ensure this trip achieves Net-Zero emissions. We also support their Buy an Acre programme, helping local communities to buy and protect natural habitats in perpetuity.
What's the number?
It works out on average at 55kg of CO2 emissions per person, including all local transport, accommodation, food, activities, guides, staff and office operations.
The only thing it doesn’t include right now is flights and travel to the destination. We do make an overall estimate across all our customers separately, but as we don’t book flights, have customers from all corners of the world, and no way of reliably knowing their travel plans, we simply can’t include an individual number in the figure on display here. We’ve got a goal to fix that, so that when you book, there is a way to measure and mitigate the carbon emitted by your flight too.
But what does the number mean?
Yep, hard to picture eh? To give you an idea:
- Driving 1000miles/1609km would be approx. 281kg of CO2 in an average car (or 140.5kg per person if there was 2 of you in it).
- A return economy class flight London - New York would be approx. 1,619kg (1.66 tonnes) per person.
- 10 trees in a temperate forest are estimated to remove approx. 250kg of CO2 from the air in a period of 5-10 years.
What are we doing about it?
Our trips are relatively low-carbon by design, and we're working with all our hosts to develop long term carbon reduction plans. We partner with the World Land Trust to ensure this trip achieves Net-Zero emissions. We also support their Buy an Acre programme, helping local communities to buy and protect natural habitats in perpetuity, ensuring the protection of the reserve and its wildlife.
Want to know more?
Amazingly, no international travel company has ever publicly published their carbon measurements before, as far as we know. We believe that must change, quickly. So we’re openly sharing the method we used in the hope that other companies will be able to more easily follow suit and build on what we've done so far. You'll find it all here.
Wildlife tracking allows you an incredible window into the behaviour of animal species and enables you to have a far greater understanding not only of that animal, but how it interacts with and depends upon the other fauna and flora around it.
Wolves returned in the early 1980s to Sweden and Scandinavia since they first were claimed extinct in the 1960s. Three wolves migrated from the Russian-Finnish population all the way to the county of Värmland in Southern Sweden, close to the Norwegian border. These wolves founded the new wolf population and multiplied successfully into about 200 individuals. Without the presence of predators such as wolves, ecosystems are less healthy and support less abundant wild nature, so their comeback ignited a chain reaction, boosting the restoration of ecosystems that had been degraded in their absence.
Your host for this rewilding adventure is a leader in nature-based tourism and a proud member of the European Rewilding Network, an initiative made possible by Rewilding Europe. They allow guests the opportunity for encounters with wild animals such as moose, wolves, beavers and bears in a way that connects people with nature, to educate people about the importance of biodiversity and a healthy ecosystem, and to inspire people to take action to save the wildlife and the environment. This also creates economic opportunities for local communities.
The aim is to be in the presence of the wolves - to hear them howl but not necessarily see them. Wolves in Sweden are very shy and difficult to see in the wild since the forests are dense. The main focus is therefore to listen for wolves howling and search for tracks including paw prints, territorial markings, and remnants of prey. Through this, you'll learn about wolves and their habitat. Hearing a pack of wolves howl in the wilderness of a dark forest is quite something.
If the situation is promising, you may also watch for wolves at some strategic locations. It is rare to see the wolves but it does happen occasionally.
Sure can! Over 70% of our travellers travel solo, it’s a great way to meet like-minded people.
