The sites
The first route, "Kattegattleden," runs 370 km from north to south. The second, Sjuhäradsrundan,runs 80 km. The areas along each path vary from aesthetically broad natural sites to urban landscapes.

More detailed information on each area will
be given to the commissioned artists.
Seminars
Within the four-week working process for the artists, seminars will be included with a focus on the artistic process and landscapes from professionals to provide knowledge on what individual landscapes hold in terms of nature, biology,
materials, scale, emotional connections, conditions, smells, crops, ongoing civic processes, history, archaeology, heritage, etc.
