Nature connection & wellness in the High Coast

Let me share something special about our UNESCO World Heritage site that goes beyond its stunning views. Here in the High Coast, where land has been rising from the sea for 10,000 years, you'll discover a natural sanctuary for wellness and modern wellbeing.

What makes exercising here special is our setting. Imagine doing your morning stretches with panoramic views of the archipelago and our forests, or completing your run as the sun paints the sky in golden hues. Our natural terrain offers varied challenges for all fitness levels.

In today's fast-paced world, we all need a digital detox - a chance to disconnect from screens and reconnect with ourselves. Our ancient landscape, shaped by ice ages and continuing to rise 8mm each year, provides the perfect setting to practice mindfulness, deep breathing, and natural meditation. Many guests tell me they find more clarity here in a few days than months of city life.

Nature offers the simplest path to wellness. Walk barefoot on our ancient granite, breathe in the pine-scented air, and let the rhythm of the Baltic waves guide you to a deeper sense of peace.

Grounding: Ancient Earth Energy

The High Coast outdoors offer perfect spots for grounding - a practice of connecting directly with the Earth's natural energy.

Some of my favorite locations include:

• Rocky beaches shaped by millennia of land uplift (i.e. at the rocky cliff of Rotsidan)

• Ancient granite surfaces in Skuleskogen National Park (i.e. at the summit of Slåttsalsberget)

• Pristine sandy shores along our 80km coastline (i.e. at Storsand, Norrfallsviken)

• Hidden spots perfect for morning meditation (i.e. at Per Olsbo shelter, near Docksta or at some of the Arknad wind shelters)

•
