We see many wild moose on each safari. The safari has moose guarantee 

On the worst safari we saw 5 moose. On the best safari we watched 33 moose

Join Sweden's most spectacular moose safari 

On foot we hike in pathless terrain through one of the most moose populated wilderness areas on earth

The moose are night animals and rest during the days. At dusk the moose start to move from the deepest forest in protection of the dark. Bewitching shades falls from high pine trees when we hike through the forest. Up on high hills and down in low valleys. In twilight mist the Swedish national symbol stride majestic through its wild environment. The moose come to the small lake to drink or to swim to the other side. We will be on the spot watching the giant animals

  The adventure starts with a three course dinner with many ingredients from the forest. To the dinner we listen to the experienced, and knowledgeable (native Swedish) moose tracker Mikael Nilsson who let us know about the moose and many other wild animals in the forest. When the moose hike start everyone has to be absolutely silent. Then we only communicate with sign language (a condition to see the shy and majestic animals)

The hike is not physical demanding. We hike very careful and with as less noise as possible in 1-1,5 hour. The safaris finish with a minibus tour when we visit other favorite spots of the moose

We always see several moose on each safari. On Nordic Discovery's worst safari (during the safari season May-September) 5 moose were watched. On the best safari 33 moose were seen
