HIGH COAST HIKE

Travel to the High Coast

The World Heritage High Coast is located between Örnsköldsvik in the north and the High Coast Bridge in the south. In the heart of the World Heritage, you’ll find FriluftsByn, a meeting place for nature, creativity, and community. This is where Höga Kusten Hike begins and ends. You can get here by your own car, carpooling, or bus. You can also take a train or a flight to Örnsköldsvik and from there rent a car or take the county bus to FriluftsByn.

If you need assistance planning your trip, call the High Coast Tourist Service at 0771-26 50 00.

Take the bus to the High Coast

Y-buss operates buses from Stockholm and Arlanda as well as along the entire Norrland coast. Choose the Docksta bus stop. When you disembark, it’s only about a two-kilometer walk to FriluftsByn and the start of the High Coast Hike. Unfortunately, Y-Buss is usually a bit late in sharing its bus schedules, but hang in there.

In the heart of the World Heritage High Coast, you’ll find FriluftsByn, a meeting place for nature, creativity, and community. Here, you’ll discover the coziest hangout in outdoor Sweden, Café and Restaurant Vardagsrummet, and our courtyard where popular Burgers & Beer events take place during the summer.

In connection with the pre-evening, Burgers & Beer is also arranged in FriluftsByn’s courtyard, and we have reserved the rooftop terraces for those of us hiking the High Coast Hike. On Thursday morning, you can purchase breakfast in FriluftsByn before the buses depart for the starting point. Afterward, you’ll enjoy the meals you receive during check-in. After reaching the finish line, Skulebergets Toppstuga will remain open before we gather in FriluftsByn for the After-Hike.

during the hike

When you check in for the High Coast Hike, you will pick up two breakfasts and five lunch/dinner meals. We collaborate with Outmeals, which many consider to make the absolutely tastiest outdoor food.

You will be pleasantly surprised by flavors like Vegetarian Spicy Pasta, Chicken Masala, Pasta Bolognese, Vegetarian Stroganoff with Rice and Mushrooms, etc. We have both flavorful freeze-dried meals that are a bit easier to carry and where you add boiling water, and ”wet canned” meals that are really delicious dishes already prepared, and you just warm them up in a cooking bag. We’ll show you how this works on the spot; it’s super easy.
