Right of Public Access
Right of Public Access
The Right of Public Access is unique to Sweden and a few other countries. When you are in Sweden you have the right to walk, ride, cycle, ski, swim, and camp on any land, except for private gardens, the immediate vicinity of a dwelling house or on cultivated land. It is also called the Freedom to Roam.
With this right comes responsibilities and you must take care of nature and wildlife and show consideration for landowners and for other people. It can be summed up with the phrase ‘Don’t disturb – Don’t destroy.’
Please note that nature reserves often have specials rules.
Our destination’s natural wonders: forests, lakes, meadows and walking trails are waiting for you to discover and enjoy them.
