UNDER THE HIGH COAST HIKE

Open-air schools and seminars are arranged at Nattläger Tärnättholmarna, Kälsviken and Nattläger Dal. You fill up with water along the trail.

IMPORTANT
You check in at every night camp.
You have plenty of time but you must leave the night camp no later than 10:00 on Friday and 09:00 on Saturday morning.

THE STAIRS
The hike follows well-marked paths with clear signage. You will receive a map when you check in where you can draw how you plan to hike - Original or Pleasure. During the hike you will encounter guides and officials at checkpoints who can answer questions. You can also ask other hikers.

SECURITY
There will be guides out in nature and at night camps. However, this is not a guided hike where you go with your own guide. We think it is more fun to stroll at your own pace and with those you want. At check-in you get a number to the secretariat and in case of emergency you call 112. You have the first band yourself.

WATER
During the map review, we will tell you where to find water along the trail. You should carry about three liters of water with you. Those who live in the area drink water from running streams, but as an organizer of this type of adventure, we must recommend you to boil the water in the forest. Water levels in streams depend on the weather of recent weeks.

CHECKPOINTS
When you reach the night camps you check in the guides and when you leave the next morning you check out. If you do not check in, we will first search the tent camp and if we do not find you organize a bald walk. So remember to check in and check out at night camps.

TENTING SITES
During the High Coast Hike we live in common night camps. It is not allowed to camp in a place other than those areas. The first overnight stay takes place at Tärnättholmarna and the second in the fields at Dal, in the middle of the forest. This creates a wonderful atmosphere and community.

TOILETS
There is an outdoor toilet along the trail and at the night camps. You will see them on the map. Use these but bring your own toilet paper.

HEATING
It is allowed to make fires in designated places. In these places there is also firewood. You must not take sticks from the forest or make a fire other than in the designated places.

DEBRIS
Everything you take with you on the High Coast Hike, you will fit in the pack back to FriluftsByn. You must not throw rubbish along the trail, so bring a rubbish bag for empty food bags and other rubbish.

AFTER THE HIGH COAST HIKE

The finish line of Höga Kusten Hike takes place at the top of Skuleberget where most people relax at Toppstugan and applaud the other participants.
