Sweden is more than 50% forest, and Stadsskogen, or «the city forest», is a large patch of forest in the middle of Uppsala. Stadsskogen has plenty of trails, including ones marked for cross-country skiing and horseback riding. It is popular for runners, walkers, and students biking to class. Several of the trails are elljusspår(a fun word literally meaning«electric light trail»), which is useful in evening or the dark winter. Plenty of trees and a chance to get away from cars and houses without traveling too far. A lot to explore!
