My Gronabandet Summer 2013

Wilderness Walking In Northern Places

'there is nothing like a wilderness journey for rekindling the fires of life. Simplicity is part of it. Transportation reduced to leg - or arm - power, eating irons to one spoon. Such simplicity, together with sweat and silence, amplify the rhythms of any long journey, especially through unknown, untattered territory. And in the end such a journey can restore an understanding of how insignificant you are - and thereby set you free' (Colin Fletcher)

Grona/Vita Bandet - New English Site

27/2/2014

It was good to hear from Annica of ATI Mountain Experience, the driving force behind the Grona Bandet. Annica told me that the website has parallel English pages now. All the details as to the challenge and how to conduct an attempt can be read in English.

That's good to see. It will no doubt broaden it's appeal outside of Sweden, and rightly so. The pages have also been freshened up a little. The link is here so have a look.

2014 looks a busy year for both seasons of the challenge. The first 'Vita Bandet' has gone off and there's a fairly full blog here as they pass through Harjedalen and into Jamtland. Summer looks busy too with another running attempt and some international challengers from Germany and Finland.
