The Right of Public Access

The Right of Public Access (Allemansrätten) is a unique Swedish freedom that allows everyone to enjoy nature – regardless of who owns the land. You are allowed to walk, cycle, paddle, ride, and even camp almost anywhere in forests and countryside. You may also pick flowers, berries, and mushrooms. However, this freedom comes with responsibilities – you must show respect for nature, animals, landowners, and other people. The core rule is: “Don’t disturb – don’t destroy.”

Camping in Nature

Camping in nature is a fantastic way to connect with the peace and beauty of the landscape – and thanks to the Right of Public Access, it’s allowed in Sweden. You may pitch a tent for a night or two in places where it won’t disturb landowners, wildlife, or the environment. Choose your spot carefully: avoid fields, private yards, and protected areas, and leave the place exactly as you found it. With respect and simple gear, you can enjoy a night under the stars in the heart of Swedish nature.
