Hey all,

I just wrapped up a 10-day, ~900km bikepacking trip from Copenhagen to Stockholm and thought I’d share a bit about the experience. It was my first big multi-day ride in Scandinavia and it definitely changed how I see adventure.

A few takeaways:
• Sweden is perfect for bikepacking. Flat, endless gravel, and plenty of shelters that made wild camping straightforward.
• Weather was unpredictable. Some mornings I woke up to sunshine, other times I was scrambling to set up camp before a storm hit.
• It wasn’t about the destination. By the time I rolled into Stockholm I realized the real value was the process, packing up every day, dealing with little challenges, and watching the countryside shift as I moved north.

I put together a video about the trip here if you want to see the footage: https://youtu.be/LGnvwmqxPFQ

Curious if anyone else has done long rides in Scandinavia. What routes would you recommend for the next one?
