About Skuleskogens nationalpark
Skuleskogens nationalpark protects part of the High Coast in the Västernorrland region. The terrain combines forest, rocky elevations, lakes and coastal views. The landscape helps to understand the uplift of the land after glacier retreat.
There are different entrances and routes. Your choice should consider distance, elevation gain and ground conditions, rather than treating the entire park as one single hike. Slåttdalsskrevan is a notable fissure in the landscape; check allowed paths and possible detours before you set out.
Use Örnsköldsvik as a regional base and organise transport to the chosen entrance. One day allows for a selected route without crossing all the trails. Bring what you need for the hike and return by the planned route, respecting conservation guidance and marked sections.
