I recently joined a wildlife tour with VILD in the beautiful forests of Värmland. It was an experience I’ll never forget! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, making the journey both educational and deeply immersive. The highlights of the tour were beyond my expectations. We were fortunate to spot several big moose, including the rare and breathtaking white moose, whose presence felt almost mythical. Like a ghost in the forest. As if that weren’t enough, we also encountered a great grey owl. I can’t recommend this tour enough to anyone who loves nature and seeks really authentic encounters with Sweden’s wildlife. Thank you, VILD, for an unforgettable tour.
