Returning home is the most difficult part of long-distance hiking; You have grown outside the puzzle and your piece no longer fits.

Route 10 - Köpmanholmen to Entré Nord
I missed this entire section, as my friend gave me a lift by boat to Köpmanholmen and then by car to Entré Nord. However, whilst there is some nice scenery at the tail end of route 11 that I missed, all of Route 10 is walking along the main roads through Köpmanholmen. One day I will come back and do the whole of the Höga Kusten trail, but when time is a premium, I advise you to skip it if you can.
Route 11 - Sandlågan to Köpmanholmen
Just past the connection of Route 12 and 11, my Turkish friend stopped at a campsite for some food and a break. Like me he had been walking since 5:30 am, but unlike me, he had taken the High Coast trail the whole way and so had had a tall hill to climb, that I’d missed by going along the coast through Paddal.
