Allemansrätten, or the right of public access, gives everybody the right to use private as well as public land and waterways for certain activities such as hiking, jogging or boating provided that no damage is caused to the land.

As long as you show consideration to other people and animals, the general rule is that visitors are allowed to walk across lands at a reasonable distance from houses, yards, gardens, and fenced-in areas.

 

Landowners can put up signs to exclude visitors from certain private lands.

Areas that are particularly vulnerable to damage are always off-limits as are gardens, yards, and other fenced-in areas.
