Swedish Wilderness
Suffering from Nature Deficit Disorder? It means that human beings, especially children, are spending less time outdoors resulting in a wide range of problems. Escapade Sweden wants to contribute to a cure through adventure travel. Experience their spectacular part of the world with its ancient land, giant rivers, forests and mountains coupled with a rich and vibrant culture. The tour company’s Wild Child program will take your children (with parents in tow if you want) into nature and teach them a variety of skills for enjoying and surviving in the wilderness. Activities include making fire, learning about the local natural environment and animals, bush crafts, open fire cooking, learning about indigenous cultural and more. Upon completing an adventure, children receive a certificate and patch. Seasonal recreation such as dog sledding, cross country skiing, ice climbing, kayaking, fishing and more can also be enjoyed. Trips last 3-6 nights throughout the year with very comfortable lodging and a bountiful of local foods. This unique adventure can easily be combined with other destinations throughout Scandinavia for an amazing family getaway!
