Lightweight Backpacking the Farum Lake Loop

New YouTube Video I have a need to get out and experience the outdoors at least once a month. There are no mountain ranges in Denmark like our neighbouring countries are blessed with. I miss the mountains. I grew up in Australia surrounded by mountains and vast coastlines. Because of covid-19 restrictions I didn’t hike …

Hiking the Furesø Loop with the Tarptent Notch Li

New YouTube video The location, Furesø, is a lake in North-eastern Zealand, Denmark only some 20 minutes from my home. I'm still getting used to pitching my Tarptent Notch Li, it is a different experience compared to my old Tarptent Notch silnylon model from 2015. Trail map here on AllTrails I shot the video on …

An Autumn Camp in the HMG Ultamid 2

I parked the car at Farum train station and then hiked south-east 5 km along the shore of lake Furesø until I located a nice location for the night. Wild camping is permitted here. The trail is called Mølleåstien (The Mill Stream Path). Mølleådalen (Mill Stream Valley) is part of a large branched valley system …

Bornholm Coastal Trail – Day 5

DAY 5 - Friday Sep 18, 2020 (9.2 km) I witnessed a beautiful sunrise today behind my Notch Li. The sun tried to show its presence burning its way through the beech tree forest at the back of my shelter. It was a lot colder this morning at 7℃ and that was the lowest temperature …

Bornholm Coastal Trail – Day 4

DAY 4 - Thursday Sep 17, 2020 (38.6 km) When I woke up Thursday morning the strong wind gusts were forever persisting just as they had done so all through the entire night. The Notch was still in one piece luckily. Both the tent and myself hadn't been blown away down the cliff face and …

Bornholm Coastal Trail – Day 3

DAY 3 - Wednesday Sep 16, 2020 (37.4 km) After placing my card key in the reception mailbox as I promised to do the afternoon before, I departed at 7:15 am. Walking on sealed roads for the first part this morning, I passed Bornholms Familie & Strand Camping Dueodde and at Dueodde Ferieby I turned …

Bornholm Coastal Trail – Day 2

DAY 2 - Tuesday Sep 15, 2020 (21 km) I fell asleep the night before listening to the sound of the waves rolling in to the coast and touching the shoreline. It was quite soothing and a wonderful way to fall asleep. Waking up to the same sounds was just as comforting and something that …
