      Dear all,

      Sorry I do not speak swedish….maybe I am not on the good folder
      We are a french family with 5 children…from 8 years to 4 years.
      We plan to spend 3 weeks next summer in Norway and Sweden.

      We will come through Danemark with our 110.
      We try to find the most beautiful place, roads (if possible not touristic), places where we can stay one night for a small trek.

      I am opened to all your ideas for places to see, roadtrip,….

      For info, we plan to use tent as much as possible.
      -Some days, we plan to sleep in youth hostel or equvalent (but not expensive..) , do you know some good place?
      -Do you know a nice place for canoe (I will bring 1 canoe and I will use it few times with 1 child each time)

      Thanks by advance

        I am not in to canoeing myself but I know that the area where I live is quite popular for this sport. Also some nice gravel roads for your defender :D

        Suggest that you try this link.

          I would say that three weeks is not really enough for both Sweden and Norway, at least not if you would like to go far north.

          One of my favorite areas in Sweden is around lake Sommen. However, if it is any good for canoing I cannot say…
          See https://www.google.se/maps/@58.0213507, … ,11z?hl=en for Sommen.

          I am also very fond of the west coast of Sweden, very nice nature, close to the sea. And you would most probably find water suitable for canoing.

          I would avoid Skåne, the southmost part of Sweden, where I live. Not because I do not like it (I Do!) but because I do not consider it typically Swedish.

          Why not come to Sweden over the Öresund Bridge, skip Skåne by driving north on the motorway for about 100 km, then you are in Halland and can slowly make your way along the west coast on small roads up to Norway. Norway is by the way terribly expensive, even for Swedish standards :(

            Thanks for the suggestions…
            Hans, where are the gravel roads…?
            I know that 3 weeks it is a little bit shorter but we will come back..Our plan is not to do everything but try to have a good overview….for exemple we will forget to museums of stockolhm with 5 children….

              I would recommend that you use Google Maps and look at street view.

              Also this map can be useful but it is as far as I know only available in Swedish. Gravel roads (marked in blue on the map) =Grusväg.

                  You need to select what I did on the left menu. Väguppgifter and Slitlager. This will show all gravel roads in green, you need to zoom in to see them.

                  But this is a bit overkill, I usually just select unpaved roads in my GPS and put in, to not allow motorways. If you then also select shortest route, it will normally give you very small and unpaved roads. I do this in my Garmin GPS.

                      Dear all,

                      I try to find CD with swedish map (from large to detailed scale): Do you know here I can find it (If possible also in english)

                      I do not want to use online website if I want to have it in my car….

                      Thanks

                        Don’t know if it will meet your demands, but I use ViewRanger on my galaxy note. Perfect for me. Maps of Sweden is generally expensive. Unlike ..say Norway.

                          Dear all,

                          In my land, I often use my laptop connected to my old Etrex gps.
                          I have some difficulties to find good digital map (for roads, small raods and to use also to plan some walks).
                          I will try Open street map (I have Basecamp, memorymap softwares).
                          I found kartex http://www.lantmateriet.se/sv/Kartor-oc … ogrammet1/

                          Please explain me if it is free or no? If an English version exist and what are the costs to buy maps

                          Regards

                            hello!

                            Why not try open streetmap?

                            http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=13/62.4261/17.3665

                            Its free and detalied enough. Works on most wifi/mobile devices. We use it in Russia on our Ladoga trophyraid trips. works fine!
                            Good to know fellow LR drivers are all over the coundry in case of breakdown! ;) for more modern cars we have a network http://www.slrk.org/svensk-land-rover-k … tverk.html for helping each other out!

                              I think the software is free, as well as some low resolution maps, can be found here http://www.lantmateriet.se/sv/Kartor-oc … RIK-format

                              But the good maps is very expensive. I think we talking well above 10 000 EUR for a set of detailed maps.

                              You will get quite far with a normal road GPS.

                              There are some old detailed maps in the RIK format, these maps can be viewed in a software called Fugawi, with the appropriate plugin.
