Trailrunning Sthlm

50 running-friendly paths from Mörkö in the south to Märsta in the north.

Running training often means working hard in the same round week after week. Chase times and count kilometers. Trail running - running on forest paths - is essentially different. To just be here and now and let the forest surprise. In Stockholm the forest is often closer than you might think. Here we have discovered and collected terrain trails and hiking trails close to Stockholm where we experienced marveled struggled stumbled pondered and laughed our way through hours and miles of forest paths. The book presents 50 trail rounds that are a maximum of one hour's drive from Stockholm's inner city. This is an inspiring guidebook where text photographs and maps help you find out and find the right one. In addition we look with the cultural geographer's gaze at the landscapes we move in. Here you can follow into some of the places' exciting and sometimes odd past. Stockholm's many forest tracks really enable experience running in everyday life. The joy of discovery in combination with the focus in the present required to run over the stones and roots of the paths makes each training session unique and a meeting with new places. You are not going out to train you are going on an adventure!
