Tracking Animals in Tiveden One-day tour

Description

With modern snow shoes or traditional Nordic skis we will go over the wide marshes covered in snow to experience the big skies and horizons.

We track the animals which have moved across our path and the chances are good to see tracks from fox, hare, moose and squirrel. Sometimes we also see wolf tracks!

You will go to places where very few have gone before and see older forest surviving these special environments.
The landscape where the tour takes place is one of southern Sweden´s most interesting, with high natural values connected to the marshes and the species living in the area such as great grey owl, golden eagle, black grouse and capercaillie.

During the tracking you will enjoy calm and silence and these big skies will hopefully open up your senses.
