2 days hiking trip to Söderåsen, Sweden - Saturday 14-Sunday 15 September 2019- for beginner-skilled
Saturday morning at 7am we will take the train from Copenhagen Central Station and bus (only 1.5 hours from Copenhagen) to Röstånga, from where we hike to the mysterious Odensjön where we camp. The formation of Odensjön is unclear; is it an earthquake, a rejection, the ice age or the gods that has been at stake? Judge yourself!
Then we continue with maps and compass further through Söderåsen National Park, past beautiful cliff sides with impressive gorges and through the Kværkaskogen. We camp, build bivouacs either at Klåveröd Dam (bathing possibilities) or at the smaller and more hidden Svartesjö.
Sunday we continue on Skåneleden along rippling streams (drinking water rivers), through Sweden's largest deciduous forest, which is also an artificial natural forest where the trees are untouched at the best jungle scene! Are we lucky, we see water tears and hear forest songs. We arrive at the 100 meter deep Skäralid Kløft, and we have time to enjoy the famous view from Kopparhatten before we take the bus home.

1 day hiking trip to Stevns Klint - Saturday 26 October 2019 - beginner-skilled
We are heading down to experience the world famous 15 km long, 40 m high cliff close by. The cliff is on the UNESCO World Heritage List because one can see clearly in the cliff layers from the ash cloud that originated 65 million years ago when the Chicxulub meteor crashed onto the ground off Mexico's coast. It is believed that the ash cloud was so close that 50% of all life on earth was extinct, including the dinosaurs.
In the cliff there are also a lot of fossils in the lime and chalk layers. But there are also other things to be experienced. The rare peregrine falcon, the world's fastest bird (390 km/h max) breeds on the cliff and has been seen on previous KSI trips. Then there is Højerup Church where half of it has broken into the sea and the Cold War Marsh, Denmark's only cliff fort, with its secret halls inside the cliff.
We take S-trains from Copenhagen Central Station to Køge and on to Rødvig (1h 20min) from where we walk up the cliff. When the cliff "flattens", we enter the country side to Store Heddinge and take the bus/train back to Copenhagen Central Station.
Find practical info in the tabs above.
The participant fee includes: Instruction/tour management/guiding.
The participant fee does not include: Transport (around DKK 150) and food (bring your own packed lunch/drinks/snacks).
