7-Day Wilderness Adventure | Canoeing, Campfire Cooking and Laughs in Swedish Lapland's Hidden Gem

7 Days Wilderness Adventure with Canoe in the Pärlälvens Nature Reserve with @JohanGartner.
With loaded Canoes me, Matti, and our friend Johan Gärtner went in to the Pearl River Nature Reserve (Pärlälven in Swedish) for 7 days. Johan is a dear friend of us and a true outdoorsman and he also make KZbin videos.
Our original plan was to paddle along lake Karats and go fishing, hiking, brown bear scouting and living wilderness life.
Both of us brought our Seek Outside Cimarron tents with wood stoves. This time of the year it’s really nice using a hot tent.
The first days we were challenged with some rough winds but later on the weather turned out really good.
We had a great time and did a lot of campfire cooking, catch fish, get to see Northern lights and had a lot of laughs. I hope we can make more tours in the future.
As said Johan has his own KZbin channel and you’ll find his video from the trip there. He also make a lot of interesting outdoor videos both from the mountains but also from his area in south Sweden.

We are Matti & Stina and we live in Northern Sweden in a small place called Jokkmokk. Except for making videos we also run a small company called JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA and the WORKING HUSKY KENNEL. We offer guided outdoor tours in Swedish Lapland all around the year. During the winter we mostly do sled dog tours and in the summertime, it’s hiking tours, wildlife safaris, canoe, and packraft trips. We live year-round in Jokkmokk with our 50 Siberian Husky and 2 Border Collies.

Härlig film följer Johans kanal också .. Fina vyer med drönaren. Ser fram emot nästa film..

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack! Ja vi jobbar vidare med fler filmer!!! Vyerna med drönare gör så mycket. Däremot är det så nervöst att man ska förlora drönaren någon stanns i nått träd eller så... / Matti

[@AKKE1111]

Mycket trevlig film. Tack för att ni delar..🙂🙂

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack och kul att du gillar!!!

[@camouflage962]

Matti... tack så mycket... regards from the Deserts of Western Asia...to Lapponia !

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Wooowww… Thats faraway!!! Probably very different nature? 😀 /Matti

[@JohanGartner]

Riktigt snyggt! Tack för en riktigt fin tur! Längtar tills nästa gång vi ska ut🔥

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack själv Johan. Detta måste vi göra om. /Matti

[@robertferguson3023]

Matti: "Oh, shit, it's a Brown Bear!" Bear: "Oi! Oiii! I wanna be on KZbin!"

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

😂

[@azclaimjumper]

That white pack raft Johan uses to catch 4 fish is an MRS Minnow. Here in America a person needs permit(s) even if you want to put your pack raft in a bath tub. Matti, you should show off that FireSteel & Striker to Johan next time he pulls out his Flint & Steel to start a fire. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

That's crazy that you need this kind of permission for paddling in your area! That's really sad... I showed that firesteel from you to Johan some years ago. :-) He also has a good fire steel that gives lots of sparks. / Matti

[@kevinbungles]

Looks like an awesome time I like that little stove you have

[@MrHugodiegs]

Thanks Matti. Beautiful scenario and actors. 🙂

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

I will tell Johan that you think that we are beautiful. ;-) I totally agree. The landscape up here is really fantastic. / Matti

[@MichaelGrahn]

Tack Matti, otroligt att få se från Pärlälven, va där och fiskade med mina föräldrar för drygt 40 år sedan. Kan inte säga att jag känner igen mig. Kul att du gör tillsammans med Johan som jag oxå följer. Ni är bägge stor inspiration och källa till kunskap. Började vandra under pandemin, och brukar göra turer i Ammarnäsfjällen, och då gärna utanför dom vanliga lederna.

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Vad kul att du varit i området! Pärlälven… kan det ha varit i själva älven ni va och fiskade? Detta naturreservat heter egentligen lite missvisande Pärlälvens naturreservat. Det är ju egentligen inte själva älven men däremot älvens källsjöar. Det va jättekul att göra en tur med Johan. Roligt att vi kan inspirera. Vi pratade just om detta och att just det var en av drivkrafterna för oss båda. Att inspirera fler till friluftsliv. :-) /Matti

[@elbert9679]

Bedankt

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Thanks for watching and big thanks for the support. /Matti

[@Mgluteus]

Fantastiskt fin film, stort tack för den. Ser fram mot Johans version också 👌🍁

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack! Johans film är ute nu. Du hittar den på Johans kanal: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKK5knmehrOZbdksi=7SQTgkVqFyVyNFvm /Matti

[@Fjall-Anders]

Ni är vassa på engelska, såg ju ut att vara en riktigt fin tur. Stort tack för det äventyret😀

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack! Som Johan sa på Instagram… Vi kan säga saker på engelska och det utan att vi har massa höga studieskulder så vi är tämligen nöjda! Det är på KZbin man lär sig saker vet du. 😂 /Matti

[@johanryback]

Superbra! Kul att ni gjorde det tillsammans!

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack! Vi hade ganska roligt där ute tillsammans. :-) /Matti

[@ingemarodeblad6892]

Hej, tack för en trevlig video, kul att herr Gärtner är med, två vildmarksproffs samtidigt, inte dåligt. Tänkte på det där med fukt i luftmadrassen, brukar blåsa upp den hemma med torr och varm luft några gånger så fukten försvinner.

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Tack! Två proffs ute och vi hamnade inte alls där vi tänkte… 😳 Jag funderade lite på just det. Man blåser upp den hemma men kanske med kall o torr luft. Sedan värmer upp liggunderlaget för att därefter tömma det… Kall luft binder mindre fukt och har kapacitet att binda mer när den värms upp. Riktigt bra input. Detta skall praktiseras! /Matti

[@Mainepolingguide]

Really enjoyed your video. I loved the purpose of the trip…have fun, don’t die. No need to apologize for the caution in the beginning, wind rules a canoeist. I speak English and loved hearing both languages. I wish we could get those tents and stoves in the USA. Do you think you could use a canoe paddle for a center pole? I also loved the traditional gear. There is no substitute for rolling over in bed and lighting a stove. Fair winds and full bellies. Lisa

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Hej Lisa! I really enjoy your videos!!! 3 minutes with Lisa! Your attitude is fantastic! :-) I'm the most scared guide in the whole of northern Sweden! That's why I avoid heavy winds if it's possible. I don't need to search for the adventure. The adventure finds me anyway sometimes... The tent we are using, and our backpacks, are excellent stuff! It's from your side of the Atlantic sea. The brand is Seek Outside. We can sometimes find them over here. You know... The grass is always greener on the other side. ;-) / Matti in Jokkmokk

[@centonuovimattini]

Nice trip, it would be a dream for me to learn to canoe. Thanks for sharing

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Learn to canoe is a project that never will be finished… The most important thing is that you actually get into the canoe and start paddle. Then it’s of course helpful to get some instruction from someone who has some experience with canoe. 😀 /Matti

[@centonuovimattini]

@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA Unfortunately for family reasons I can neither travel nor go away for half a day. But I hope one day to take courses and go to practice, maybe in Sweden or Finland. thank you for your suggestion!

[@Mrgoofyoops]

Hi! I am grateful for your help in understanding how to keep warm and have fun in cold environments, as I am ready to start winter camping this season. I just found your video “Keep your feet warm in winter” and there are links for the socks, but they don’t work here in the Pacific North West of the USA. Would you please help, perhaps by listing the manufacturer and the specific type or model of sock. I really enjoy your attitude and happiness in being in the far north, there is a unique beauty in this area of the planet. Thank you.

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Thanks! Check if you find something from the brand: Devold, Woolpower and/or Isbjörn. / Matti

[@henrik3098]

Underbart :)

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Yes… very!!! I want to go back out there!!! /Matti

[@azclaimjumper]

Hot tents, good company, tasty meals, coffee, Northern lights at night, & beautiful weather. 20:26; Someone is using a Soto Windmaster gas canister stove to boil water for coffee. 23:27; Water is really smooth/calm. 29:11; I'm hoping someone catches fish. I wanna see you gut/clean it then eat it. 36:55; Flint & Steel to start a fire, really old, old school. Now we know WHO😀😃😄😁😇 knows how to fish & who doesn't😀😃😄😁😁😁😁 49:47; Love the overhead drone footage of the canoe moving in the lake which is so smooth 51:14; I know you know each time you scoop water out of source without filtering it, it really pisses me off. I thoroughly enjoyed all the laughter throughout this video. 1:11:14; That is a Gomboy saw. I can tell because it's cutting on the pull stroke. 1:17; I especially liked the script that warns of clear cutting old virgin forests. I didn't blink, not once, as I was so captivated by the footage & conversations. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Thanks for watching our videos so carefully!!! :-) Very soon Johan will upload his video but it’s in Swedish. But maybe it’s interesting to see it from his perspective anyway? I really look forward to see how he has captured this lovely tour. /Matti

[@azclaimjumper]

@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA I watched Johan's video & subscribed & LIked even though I didn't understand a word of what was being said. Seems, Johan really knows how to fish.😇😁😄😃😇

[@AlexanderBlumenau]

@@azclaimjumper We recently bought some land adjacent to this nature reserve. Tragically, part of it was clear cut just two years earlier. There is some movement against clear cutting forestry in Sweden but it is still weak and growing only slowly. I guess future generations will understand better. But for the remaining virgin forest we cannot wait for that to happen. We must protect it already now.

[@azclaimjumper]

@@AlexanderBlumenau Thinning, YES! Clear cut. NO!

[@AlexanderBlumenau]

You can have coffee at our place when you start the next tour in the Pearl River Nature Reserve 😎 .... but I wonder if you cut any of OUR trees for that campfire! 🤔

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Next time we probably camp outside your house during the whole week. It's very good to just wake you up and then 15 minutes later you serv us breakfast! :-) / Matti

[@d3bugg3r]

what an awesome tour, with incredible weather and even with aurora borealis, i really enjoyed watching your two man trip ending with a cliffhanger - how did that one turn out?

[@bonpecheur4565]

It was a pretty entertaining video , I wish it would had last longer . Nice reverse psychology at the end , by mentionning not to subscribe to your channel ...😋 well too bad , I already did

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Thanks!!! We have several more videos on the way. It’s videos from different tours, how to, reviews and about equipment. What do you prefer? /Matti

[@raymondlogister6828]

wow what a awesome trip. I also look to Johan version off the trip, but i understand nothing off the Swedish langue. So i am very happy that you also film the trip. Thank to you both for this great adventure.

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Thanks!!! Ahaaa… He published his video by mistake and then closed it again. You was one of the lucky ones who could see it. :-) I think he will put it online very soon. /Matti

[@johannesk1855]

Nice trip! When was this filmed?

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

We started the 4 of September and were out 7 days/6 nights. It’s a great period but the peak of the colours was a few days later… this year. /Matti

[@christophersavin2116]

20:11 Lars Monsens kaffeburk, vart köper man den? 😁🤖

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Själva grytan är et Toaksgryta som jag har köpt på backpackingligt.se och muggen är en GSI mugg. Du hittar länkar i videons description. / Matti

[@christophersavin2116]

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA haha jag menar plastburken till snabbkaffet 😅 nu blev det nördigt, men är det typ en frysflaska (som de gamla finska fastrarna frös blåbär i)?😊

[@megalep7025]

Those tents look interesting. But extremely lightweigt with1100grams for the tent only. I can't help but think there must be some downsides if compared to a teepee type of tent or what? I have also had a look at NorTent lavvo4 and might go for that and a titanstove, and they have titanstoves with three windows so you can see the fire. Have you tried the nortent, if so which one is better do you think of the ones you use in this video and that kind of hot-tent?

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Hello! I have been using Tentipi and the Seek Outside. I really prefer the Seek Outside. It's much better with the stove jack instead of the thing to make the stove pipe going through the top in the Tentipi. I have one Nortent Gamme 6PC and thats a great tent! I really enjoy the dome tent with a stove! / Matti

[@centonuovimattini]

what is that box to make a fire in? did you bring it with you or was it already there for hikers? (at 7:52)

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Hi! That’s just one of our winnerwell fast folds stove without the top mounted. 😀 Matti

[@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA]

Thanks! Brown bears are super shy and the only way to get some action is to fake it… ;-) So… in reality Johan and I was just having fun and playing around with the camera. :-) /Matti

[@d3bugg3r]

That‘s too sad. 😂 I’d love seeing you filming a brownbear. I never had the luck of seeing one. We only saw some moose, reindeer, and polar foxes.
