ARK56 in Blekinge

A connected trail system – closer to nature, closer to yourself

ARK56 is not a single trail.
It is a connected outdoor system that brings you closer to nature – without taking you far away.

In Blekinge, the forest meets the sea.
The archipelago is part of everyday life.
And outdoor experiences are easy to reach, easy to combine, and easy to enjoy at your own pace.

ARK56 links hiking, cycling and kayaking routes across Blekinge’s UNESCO Biosphere Reserve – offering year-round access to a calm, authentic part of Sweden.
