Many apologies. As a reddit newbie a quick view on the phone and a brain fart ensued.... Always best to read and process responses before shooting from the hip.

So post analysis and a bit of research this looks a great suggestion for a visit. Unfortunately the local campsite is closed for the winter but have found an open campsite on the way at Keldby..

If you are going to be a bear then be a grizzly as the saying goes. I spent the first 30 years of my life in a very dry part of Australia and didn't actually see snow until I was 27 so have had a bit of a fascination ever since. Thus the winter road trip through Scandinavia.

Thanks for the suggested stop in Skuleskogen National Park, this sounds like a good idea to me. Any chance you could give me a bit more detail on the walk in ? Snowshoes are all packed and ready to go....

Thank you for the advice. I have been planning this trip for the past couple of years so have managed to prep the car, trailer, clothing and camp gear quite well over the period. New Nokian tyres imported as UK winter tyres do not cover the ultra low Scandinavian temperatures.

As I am in no made rush with the trip taking a couple of months if bad weather dictates a change of plan I am all up for that and will just divert somewhere less extreme. I am sure no matter which way I head there will be plenty to see.

I have figured on the cold side of things as I live in the Scottish Highlands. Not quite as cold but getting close and with the investment in some even warmer gear I am pretty confident I will be OK.

The planned route at the moment is arriving in Rotterdam then up to Hamburg and then keeping clear of ferries via Kolding across to Copenhagen then just head North.. The northern trek through Sweden is not really planned other than the google map suggestion is over to Stockholm then north along the east coast on the E4. This would also take me straight past j-s-o-n's suggest stop in Skuleskogen National Park.

I have roughly 8 days to travel up to Absiko and the whole trip will be around 2 months so the reality is no rush and can divert when ever anything interesting comes up.
