Pilgrimstad

I took the advice of Bengt, with whom I stayed last night, and used the cycle/equestrian route from Revsund to Pilgrimstad. It was all road of some description or another. There were some more difficult stretches of freshly spread rock that slowed me down, but overall, it wasn´t overly difficult.

My overall average walking pace has come up slightly, but hasn´t been improving enough to make the 20 km days I had contemplated seem reasonable. I will have to think about this and do some replanning tomorrow when I get to Östersund.

Tonight, I am staying at Rita's Dock, the home of Rita and Connie M. They have moved an old farm storage shed from the late 19th C and turned it into a very rustic dormitory with four beds on the upper level and a sitting room and meals area downstairs. The deck outside has some comfortable chairs and a delightful view over the lake.Læs mere
