The High Coast of Sweden, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape on the Gulf of Bothnia where the land is still rising from the sea after the last ice age — exhibiting the highest documented post-glacial rebound on earth. Dramatic headlands, ancient shoreline terraces, and dense boreal forests characterize the area. The Skuleskogen National Park at its heart offers trails through old-growth forest to viewpoints above fjord-like inlets.
