Summer of opportunities

Finally, summer! Time for kayaking sparkling rivers, hiking grassy and serene woodlands, camping in the remote wilderness, going trekking, going cycling...going everywhere. With so many places to go and things to do, gear up and get out there with functional and versatile clothing and equipment. Then, stay out as long as you like.

Summer of day hiking

‘Hiking is a glorious way to connect with nature, The light through the trees, the scent of the earth, and the quiet all bring peace. With every step, stress fades, and you feel more present, alive, and free.’

Libby De Lana
Podcaster and Fjällräven Friend

Libby’s Top picks

Host of the My Morning Walk podcast, Libby opts for Everyday Outdoor essentials and a light shell jacket on her day hikes.

Summer of trekking

'Summer treks are dreamy, because of the longer days, higher trails, meadows bursting with wildflowers, and abundant wildlife. The season's sunrises, fleeting you need to be up before the birds stir, are indescribable.’

Expedition Guide and Fjällräven Friend

Ian’s essentials

On rugged terrain, Ian opts for technical gear in both lightweight materials and hardwearing G-1000, including trekker favourites like the Kajka Backpack.

Summer of cycling

‘The feeling of freedom – moving forward by your own power, being so close to nature, and getting even closer to each other – it’s incredibly satisfying. You realise you’re capable of much more than you think.’

Jennie’s favourites

While bikepacking Africa, Jennie appreciated how HOJA made her feel as comfortable on the bike as in town or at camp.

Summer of kayaking

‘The beauty of the kayak is that anyone can master it. On the water, only the basics matter, like being dry, warm, and well-fed. Everything else is a luxury.’

Lina Hallebratt
Outdoor Guide and Fjällräven Friend

Lina’s Go-tos

Outdoors 300 days a year, when Lina’s on the water, she likes that Abisko and High Coast gear allow full freedom of movement and is easily packable.

Summer of camping

‘Summer camping is special because of the longer evenings, the possibility to travel more simply, the time spent with friends and family, and the diverse weather conditions that make all of the other things more interesting.’
 
Harald Born
Fjällräven Field-Test Coordinator

Harald’s must-haves

Remote camping in the Yukon is demanding. Harald opts for gear that handles challenging conditions but is made for warm weather. Like Keb and Abisko.
