Vandra Bohusleden

This book is written in Swedish.

The Bohusleden's 370 kilometers offer the hiker a varied experience in the less exploited parts of Bohuslän. Expansive views from bare rock outcrops are interspersed with deep forests. Small-scale agriculture and remains of industrial history are mixed with heather and windswept pines. The Bohuslän rift valley landscape can sometimes challenge the hiker's leg muscles, but the trail is rarely difficult. And the beach and the ice cream stand are never far away.

The content of the book is divided into two different parts. The first part describes all 27 stages of the Bohusleden with all the necessary practical information, such as where the nearest bus stop or train station is. The authors also give personal tips about which wind shelter is coziest or which bathing lake is best along a certain stage. The second part of the book describes 15 suggestions for hikes that can be done by combining different stages of the Bohusleden, these are both day trips and weekend hikes with overnight stays.
