Hiking packages

A five-day hiking package where you hike from accommodation to accommodation along the Sörmland coast in Trosa

About the feasibility study

Four entrepreneurs and landowners along the Sörmlandsleden trail saw the need to develop a bookable hiking package between each other's facilities.

The challenges they saw were solving the logistics of transporting luggage, booking routines and travel guarantees.

The feasibility study has contributed to the realization of a bookable hiking package that extends over five days in rare overnight accommodations along the Sörmlandsleden trail.

Kickstart Nature Tourism

Kick Start Nature Tourism is a LAG-owned project that will support landowners and nature tourism entrepreneurs to create package offers.

The purpose of the project is to promote knowledge and collaboration between tourism companies and those who own the land to develop sustainable nature tourism that benefits the local population, nature, culture and entrepreneurship based on land ownership.

The goal of the project is to offer process development to 10 sub-activities  in packaging nature tourism and producing films and articles about the project.

Landowners, nature tourism entrepreneurs and associations with connections to nature and cultural environments within the Leader Sörmland Coast area of operation can apply for process management support to develop a new nature tourism package.
