While trekking, sometimes all you want is a place to rest and spend the night; other times, you want an experience in and of itself.
Set your trekking base camp
These coastal Airbnbs are a little different from other places you might stay. They are located at the Docksta marina, along the Höga Kusten Leden route (Etapp 5: Ullånger–Skuleberget).
They are in a prime location near Skuleskogen National Park and the Skuleberget Mount trails.
You find one or two sleeps in the comfortable, tiny room of a real Nordic boathouse.
In the dock house, which is a glamorous lodging above the sea, you will find a 40sqm cabin with a spectacular double bed facing the sea, living room, and kitchenette.
For families or a group of friends, a spacious, well-equipped apartment overlooking the Docksta fjord with a breathtaking sea view is ideal.

Some ideas and tips to make the most of your vacation break in Docksta:
👉 The highest point of land in the globe to have been raised by a postglacial isostatic rebound is located at 286 meters above sea level highest at the summit of Skuleberget Mounth: there are beautiful trails to reach it.
👉 Hiking the Skuleskogen national park's wonderful routes and taking in its breathtaking scenery should take up an entire day.
👉 Naturum Museum, Via Ferrara, and concerts at Skuleberget Mount: have fun with outdoor activities a step away from the marina.
👉 The old church of the village (2 km from the marina) and Per-Olsbo wind shelter (at 3,8 km) can be reached with an easy walk along the southerly segment of the Höga Kusten Leden.
👉 The magnificent trail that leads to the summit of Vårdkallberget Mount is surrounded by rocky pine forests.
👉 A day trip with the ferry to discover the renowned Ulvön island and beauty of the archipelago: the ferry starts from the harbor in Docksta at 10am.
👉 The outdoor sessions of functional group training with Marcus Lindberg (every Monday or Wednesday at 6:30 in Berg).

P.S. I’m a trail runner. I like to explore new routes with a hiking mindset, especially those on the High Coast. Here below you find what I highlighted in these blog posts.
