What equipment do I need?

Hiking on the E1 and E6 trails in Sweden means walking on regional and local trails. You can hike from early spring to late autumn in many areas. In parts of southern Sweden where winter snow does not prevent access, hiking is possible year-round. No special equipment is required, but good shoes or boots and rain gear are essential. In several places, the trails pass through small communities where you can resupply and refill water. However, make sure to read up on each section carefully, as some stretches involve several days of hiking without access to supplies or water.
