Liz Manton and John Sheridan will talk about their five-day walk in August 2011 in the northern section of the Kungsleden Trail in Swedish Lapland, 300km above the Arctic Circle. This area is not widely known, but the walking is not hard and the scenery is spectacular.
There are multiple options for doing the walk from pack carrying everything (what Liz and John did) to staying in well-spaced (in terms of walking distance) huts, sometimes with attached saunas!
