Follow my adventures around the world – to the top of mountains and life behind the lens.
I´m back from guiding our first All Women Aconcagua expedition! It was a dream. When I imagined how it could be, when I created the expedition – this was even better. We had an amazing group of women from all over Europe. Everyone super nice, helping each other and built that team spirit. The expedition…

I´m in Chile right now, climbing together with my friend Lotta Hintsa for a few days before I´m guiding my All Women Expedition on Aconcagua. We are doing two mini-expeditions here and we just came back from the first one where we climbed Cerro El Plomo via Iver glacier. Cerro El Plomo is the highest…
New year and here are my goals for 2025! I have divided them into three categories: Emma Svensson AMGA Alpine Guide course – I’ve been accepted! Train hard for the AMGA course – I’ve set aside 6 weeks this spring to train for it. Start saving for a down payment on a house – my…

Since the death of FATMAP (RIP) I´ve been trying out different apps for navigation in my job as a guide. One I´ve tried the most is Outdoor Active because I was told as an International Mountain Leader we would get a pro deal for free with this app. I´ve used it for a few months…
I´ve been going around Sweden this fall talking about how to start climbing mountains and how to build experience step by step to become independent. Climbing mountains is much more complicated then going to the climbing gym or the crag. It requires a lot of skills & knowledge: Tour planning Navigation Route Finding Weather &…
For the second week of running the motivation for a new project was gone. I had to be really disciplined so get out there and do the runs. But I did and what I noticed was that it was easier for me to stay in a lower heart rate zone. During the first week it…

I just decided to take on a new challenge. When I start this it´s 8 weeks left of 2024 and I want to see how good of a runner I can become before the end of the year. Those of you who know me, knows I´m not a runner. But I see the benefits of…
Loved shooting this campaign for SILVA in a storm up on high altitude!
Jag är precis hemkommen från att ha guidat en vandring till Everest Basecamp. Som alltid var det en otrolig upplevelse att vara i Nepal och jag tror alla deltagarna håller med om det också. Några saker som jag reflekterat över från en guides perspektiv Det var stökigt väder denna säsong med en lite senare Monsun…

Jag har precis genomfört min tredje expedition till Kebnekaise för i år och här är några saker jag tänker på som jag sett i sommar: Det är tungt att bära sin egen packning och försöka göra toppen dagen efter. En vilodag emellan gör livet mycket härligare! 30-40% av alla som gör Västra Leden vänder. I…
This blog post will be my big guide to Via Ferratas in The Alps. It will be updated every time I have done a new Via Ferrata. VIA FERRATA FRANCE Chamonix – Via Ferrata Evettes Moderately difficult and steep Via Ferrata in Chamonix with two Himalayan bridges, one of which is really long and exciting!…
If you are going to The Alps this summer here are five climbs to put on your bucketlist: Aiguille de Rochefort The most beautiful ridge climb I´ve even seen! Sometimes super narrow with 2000 m exposure into Italy on your right side. It´s graded AD but you need good balance and a great partner for…
Old guidebooks state that the best season for alpine climbing in the Alps is July and August – something that has changed quite drastically in recent years due to climate change. Nowadays, June and September are usually better because it is too hot during July and August (with plus degrees at high altitude, no refreezing…
