Vita & gröna bandet

Our Scandinavian mountain range with its more than 1300 km, offers most of what many would call real wilderness. To traverse its length by your own steam has become a classic. Its completion is proof of mountain knowledge and experience, but also of good judgement, endurance and friendship.

The idea of the White and Green Ribbons is that the walkers/skiers travel by their own power from Grövelsjön in southern Swedish mountains to the point where Sweden, Norway and Finland meet in the north, Treriksröset/the cairn of three kingdoms. Or vice versa. The trip should be implemented as a continuous tour without longer breaks and without external help (e.g. food driven out by snowmobile etc. to the skier). The tour can be conducted all year round. The colour of the Ribbon indicates the season in which the tour has been conducted.
