All bear excursions:

  • Clothes after weather
  • Long leg trousers and long arm shirt
  • Wandering boots (waterproof) or rubber boots (prefered)

The nearest outdoor-magazine is Orsa Outdoor. Here you can get high quality gear for your future outdoor adventures.

Please be aware that transport during the event will be with your own car. In case you want to come with public transports, let us know in advance so we can manage transport for you.

You can get towel and sheets from us for a small fee if you do not carry own.

The nearest supermarked is 45km from Kvarnberg in Orsa. Anyhow, there are possibilities to buy food at Rosentorps Bageri (8km) and at the gasoline-station in Noppikoski (5km). Both Rosentorps Bageri and Noppikoski Gasoline Station will be glad to have you as a customer and are worth a visit.
