It od not happen often that I can have vacation in September. I look
forward to five days in the mountains, and I hope that nature is kind enough
to dress for automn. We arrived yesterday to Hemavan, and have spent the
night as th eonly guests at the youth hostel. The morning offer fog, which
dissolve during the morning. The shine from an almost clear sky when we
at lunch start our walk on the road up to the botanical garden. We continue
on Kungsleden through a birch forest, which has begun to switch to autmon
colours. The track goes uphill, pass the ski pists, and turn into the valley
towards Viterskalet and Syterskalet. It is now slightly downhill. It is
by no means a dramatic valley, but the gentle mountains and the open broad
valley gives a far reaching impressive view. The weather is fantastic,
15 degrees and sunshine. This looks promising for our plan to walk up towards
Sytertoppen, but of course the weather can change. At a brook naerby the
bridge over Syterbäcken do we find our campsite. |
