“Our years in Skåne have been so wonderful. Magical basecamps, great variations of nature and professional help and collaboration with Skåneleden and other partners made it a blast!”
Martin Björklund, Arknat
ARKNAT SKÅNE
In 2018 Skåneleden reached out to Arknat and were curious at us. Last two summers we’ve spent 6 weeks in total designing and building 9 unique wind shelters along the trail Skåneleden.

A UNIQUE CO-OPERATION
ARKNAT Skåne is a collaboration between many different stakeholders who all support Arknat in best possible and personal way.
Some sponsor us with essential building material and tools like Cramo, XL-BYGG, Essve, Organowood, Moelven and Ängavången Ekgolv.
Other partners like the municipalities of Östra Göinge, Kristianstad, Bromölla, Ängelholm, Landskrona, Kävlinge, Malmö, Trelleborg and Svedala supported with the sites and great help with small and big issues.
Region Skåne with Skåneleden are Arknat’s no 1 fan and help out both moneywise and with great trail knowledge. The local banks Sparbanken Skåne, Gripen, Färs & Frosta and Sparbankstiftelsen Skåne supports us and think we are doing a great job creating new places in nature for public use.
As you see there are many partners involved. Thanks to them Arknat can be Arknat and our visions becomes reality.
“In just two weeks we go from simple idea to finished building. That’s impressive and an important experience to have in our future profession”
Linnea Gillberg, student 2021 LTH
