Welcome to the second winter hike of 2023! We will hike from Tjälamark, near Umeå on road 363, to Hamptjärnsberget and then back to Umeå through the western suburbs of the city.

The hike is 9 km in total, with a climb of about 70 meters and a descent of about 120 meters. We will enjoy views of Umeå and make a fire to warm up and grill some food. At the mountain there is also a cafeteria that sells traditional waffles and fika sweets (apart from hot and cold drinks). You can even bring your cross-country skis or a snow sled to enjoy an authentic Umeå winter experience!
