Crown Princess Victoria's visits to the Swedish National Parks

Victoria will visit all of Sweden's 30 National Parks

Press release from the County Administrative Board of Gävleborg County
On Friday 4 February, the Crown Princess will visit Färnebofjärden National Park. The activity is the first in a series with the goal that the Crown Princess will visit all of Sweden's national parks.
The purpose of the visits is to promote outdoor life, encourage movement, contribute to public health and get more people to discover what Sweden has to offer in the form of nature experiences. At the same time, the Crown Princess wants to learn more about Sweden's national parks. (..)

Svensk Damtidning has spoken with the court
It is a dream project that is coming true for Victoria and it starts on Friday.
- I'm not an indoor person! Victoria usually says. She thrives best outdoors, and it shows in her new travel project!
The court tells that it was when Victoria made her 25 province hikes that the idea for the "national park project" was born. So now it's time again, visits to Sweden's 30 national parks.

The province hikes were great to follow, I'm sure these visits will be interesting too.

Victoria said to Radio Sweden P4 Gävleborg's reporter:
- I want to highlight Sweden's national parks and think that we have such a fantastic nature in Sweden and I wish that more people would take the opportunity to experience all the good we have.
Victoria was asked how often she has time to hike:
- I love to hike, love to be in nature and that is also a reason why I think it is a very good initiative, I can be outdoors and hike a bit. To pay attention to all the good we have in our nature and to remind that it is actually both nice and quite easy to get out into nature. You actually do not need much more than good shoes really and then dress according to the weather. But right now it's an opportunity for me to stay one day outdoors.

The court tells about the visit:
Victoria started the day at Gysinge and walked towards the national park's main entrance. There, a lunch was prepared over an open fire. At lunch, staff from the County Administrative Board told about the national park.
The afternoon hike went along the Dalälven river. Victoria also walked the Kungsslingan where, among other things, the Kungsstenen (The King's Stone) stands. The stone marks the place where the King inaugurated the national park in 1998.
In the coming years, Victoria plans to visit Sweden's 30 national parks. Through her visits to the national parks, Victoria wants to promote outdoor life, encourage movement and get more people to discover what Sweden has to offer in the form of nature experiences. At each visit, local experts participate who guide and provide information about the nature in the current national park.

Finally out in the fresh air. It can not be missed that the Crown Princess enjoyed when she visited Färnebofjärden National Park.
Victoria has embarked on a new ambitious project - she will visit all of Sweden's national parks.

SVT's Regional News showed a clip of Victoria's visit. Victoria said that she had learned two totally new terms, which are very characteristic of where we are today: "älväng" and "svämskog". The reporter says that they have seen a great deal, and Victoria showed them an eagle. Victoria says "Yes, it came! Fantastic. So fun. We were lucky." Victoria says: "Sweden has such an incredibly rich nature and it is actually accessible. I want to remind you of that."

MatVärden posted to its Facebook photos from the visit
"Crown Princess Victoria visited Färnebofjärden National Park last Friday.
We at MatVärden were asked by the County Administrative Board to compose both breakfast and lunch for the Crown Princess. Of course, we took the chance to serve local food made from raw materials and products from the county's entrepreneurs. We also told about the food in Gävleborg when the Crown Princess was interested and asked questions.
MatVärden's chef Hans Erik and Christoffer Selander, chef at Högbo Qvarn, created the dishes and presented the food to Crown Princess Victoria.
Breakfast at Naturum in Gysinge. Lunch was served after the Crown Princess walked inside the national park, a total of 14 km together with conservationists and staff from Naturum / Färnebofjärden."

During two years, Crown Princess Victoria visited all of Sweden's provinces. Now she is going on a national park tour.
Next week she will come to Garphyttan National Park and will hike on Bergslagsleden.

Whoever had the idea for Victoria to go to all the provinces (and now all the parks) is an absolute genius. Up to and including if it was CPV herself.

Crown Princess Victoria has once again taken on a tough duty.
She will visit all of Sweden's national parks.
We remember everyone with warmth, Victoria's triumphant province visits. During two years, she hiked in all of Sweden's provinces - the success was monumental.
Now our future head of state has taken a new important initiative. The Crown Princess, who is not afraid of a challenge, has decided to visit all 30 of Sweden's national parks.
In this way, she pays attention to the important function that national parks have. She also wants to promote outdoor life, encourage movement and get more people to discover what Sweden has to offer in the form of nature experiences.

Garphyttan National Park was formed in 1909 and is one of Sweden’s oldest national parks.

Short video of Victoria's visit at SVT News, she is also interviewed:
Victoria explored Garphyttan National Park and walked along Bergslagsleden.
She visited the park to learn more about bird life and the modern history of the spruce bark beetle. The walk included Governor Maria Larsson and staff at the County Administrative Board in Örebro County.
Victoria and the County Administrative Board made a stop at Skomakartorpet. The foundation of the old croft is still visible and with imagination you can understand that there was also arable land here. Now it is a rest area with the opportunity to grill.
- We have had time to see fantastic cultural-historical environments in a fantastic spring-beautiful nature that has changed quite a lot from where we started. With the county administrative board's various experts one can also see the landscape we once had, says Victoria.

Many nice photos at Svensk Damtidning's article
Crown Princess Victoria is spoiled to be the main character for the most part, but today it was the charm dog Rio, 2, who stole the whole show!

Crown Princess Victoria was in a radiant mood when she met in the spring in Garphyttan National Park.
The visit was part of her plan to visit all of Sweden's national parks.
- It feels great to be here and I am very happy and grateful to have such a beautiful day, says the Crown Princess to NA.

Court website
By visiting all of Sweden's national parks, the Crown Princess wants to promote outdoor life, encourage movement and get more people to discover what Sweden has to offer in the form of nature experiences.
Together with local experts, the Crown Princess got to experience Garphyttan's nature today with a focus on, among other things, spring flora in deciduous forests, bird life, wetlands and coniferous forests. The first part of the hike went from the park entrance to Svensbodaberget.
In the afternoon, the Crown Princess walked part of Bergslagsleden. There, the hike went through cultivated forest land and a turn into the nature reserve Dunderklintarna.

Swedish National Parks at its Instagram
"Today, Crown Princess Victoria visited Garphyttan National Park Örebro County. During the hike together with the national park's manager with colleagues from the County Administrative Board in Örebro County, she got to know this small but varied gem on the slope of Kilsbergen.
In the open arable land, we looked for traces of older cultivation and buildings. Both blue anemones and white anemones kept us company through the deciduous forest that used to be a sparsely wooded meadow. Here we talked about birds and plans for the restoration of an older wetland. Inside the coniferous forest, it was difficult not to notice how the spruce bark beetle has been persistently refurnished since 2018.
After a stop at the remains of the old Skomakartorpet, the hike led further up on Svensbodaberget, where we enjoyed lunch with a mighty view of the Närkeslätten.
We thank you for a very nice visit and wish the Crown Princess welcome back again soon."

Victoria visits Tiveden National Park on 18th October.
Officiella program _ Kungahuset

The Tiveden National Park is situated in the Tiveden forest in the municipalities of Laxå (Örebro County) and Karlsborg (Västra Götaland County), in the province of Västergötland. The national park was established in 1983. After an extension in 2017, it now covers 2,030 hectares.



The visit to the Tiveden National Park was postponed because Victoria had to attend the Change of Government Council. No new date for this visit yet.

Victoria's next visit to Swedish National Parks will be on April 19, to Sonfjället National Park in Härjedalen Municipality.
