This book takes you to the very finest natural gems around Uppsala. The hikes are spread over a large area, from Älvkarleby and Gysinge in northern Uppland down to Härjarö and Skokloster in the south. You'll find tours in classic outdoor areas such as Hammarskog, Fjällnora and Lunsen, but you'll also get tips on lesser-known donut spots. In total, you will receive 49 suggestions for shorter and longer hikes that you can reach during the day from central Uppsala. The tours vary in length from a few kilometers to over two miles. Some hikes are easy to do with light running shoes, while others may require boots and a backpack. With a few exceptions, you can get to all hikes by public transport. The author Gunnika Isaksson-Lutteman is something of an expert in finding adventures in everyday life. Previously, she wrote the guidebooks Vandra Upplandsleden, Vandra Gästrikeleden, Vandra Roslagsleden and Vandra i Stockholms skärgård.
