⚠️ WARNING: THIS IS A TOUGH HIKE
This is a long-distance trek through the heart of the rugged Svartedalen wilderness via the Bohusleden trail. This is not a casual walk and is
for hikers that really want a challenge.
No Exit Points: Once we enter the deep forest, there are no roads or easy ways to "drop off." You must be prepared to finish the entire 33 km.
The Darkness: We will be walking for over 10 hours. We will be finishing the final sections of the trail in total darkness.
Pace: While Mapy.cz says 9h 16m, the forest terrain is slow and technical. We are budgeting 10h 49m to ensure we make our transport back home.
