The programme in more detail

We will welcome everybody on Friday August 9, 2024, 11h30 at the railway station of Groningen. We will travel with small busses for 9 persons to the direction of Sweden. During the journey we will stay in / near a Scoutingbuilding.

In a nutshell the program will consist of: puzzling and orientation, hiking in the hills, through dense forests or a crossing about a swamp. In Sweden you do the hiking in small groups to the next bivouac. Daily you will walk, bike and/or sail distances up to 8 hours of moving a day.

You will carry all your personal belongings yourself in a hiking backpack. We often ask each group to take a few extra things like food, a piece of canvas or drinking water.

During the trip you wil solve some map- and compasspuzzles. At several posts you will have nice activities with a big eyewink to the primitive life or you just eat something nice.

It is not just walking but you will also be in a canoe to peddle to the next bivouac in order to take a dip or catch some fish.

We choose some nice bivouacspots for Mission Possible Sweden which are situated most of time near the waterside. There you will prepare warm meals at a logfire, that you will eat together with the other participants. There will be also a lot of pleasant things on the program!

In addition to solving the hidden mystery every day, we strive to spread outdoor activities, such as lorrie cycling, rock climbing, etc. over the days. The cooking, building your bivouac and 'socializing' around a campfire in the evening are a clear part of Mission Possible Sweden.

On Saturday morning August 17, 2024 we will start to return home to Holland. We say goodbye to the Scottish participants at the busstation: 67230 Årjäng in Sweden from where they will travel back home. Saturday night we sleep in a Scouting building in Ängelhölm. Sunday morning August 18, 2024 we will continue our drive back to Groningen where you will arrive during the afternoon at the central railwaystation.
