Today marked our final day in Åre for this trip. We've completed most of the trails around the area, but one still remained—Hållfjället! So, we packed a picnic, grabbed our gear, and drove out to Ottsjö to explore the final trail on our list.

Today, Vera and I hiked the western trail to the top of Åreskutan (Trail 214). The trail is 7.6 km long with a steep ascent of 860 meters. The weather was absolutely perfect, and the mood was high!

The family’s first hike together in the mountains went pretty well. We headed straight out the door in Tegefjäll and made our way up Mullfjället. To avoid the climb through the slopes in Duved, we took a shortcut up via Englandsbacken.

Today was Vera’s first mountain hike, and to keep things simple, we started with Mullfjället, just around the corner from our apartment in Tegefjäll.

Today marked our final day of hiking for this trip. After checking the weather forecast, which promised a bit of sunshine, we saved the best mountain for last. Ottfjället truly is a highlight!

Today, we decided to hike the Grofjällsrundan (trail 223). The journey begins in Edsåsdalen, taking you first through dense spruce forests that gradually transition into birch woodlands, before reaching the open mountain plateau. It was a cloudy day, perfect for a mountain hike!

It was our first summer in Åre, and Marcus, Petter, and I were eager to get out on the trails. Even though it was only early June and still a bit early for mountain hiking, we couldn’t resist heading up over the Pentecost weekend. We left Thursday evening, excited for three amazing day hikes ahead!
