Expedition

Sweden MC expedition to Småland

Valdshult lake, Gislaveds kommun, Jönköpings län, Sverige · August 2026

Mission

Find some interesting wildlife in the swedish lakes and nature

A wildlife photography expedition deep into the Swedish wilderness around Södra Vallsjön near Hestra. The goal is to get close to nature and capture wildlife in its natural surroundings. The lake, forests and Valån river provide the setting as I search for roe deer, foxes, birds of prey, dippers, otters, beavers and, hopefully, the elusive kingfisher. After a quiet evening by the lake, filled with owl calls, mysterious cries and movement in the darkness, the morning promises to be even more exciting. The camera is ready — now it’s up to the wilderness to reveal what it has been hiding.
