Important things to know

Rules of conduct

For everyone’s wellbeing we would like you to follow a set of rules:

Alcohol and narcotics

According to the policy of the Swedish scout movement alcohol and drugs are prohibited. Which means you are not allowed to bring or consume alcohol or narcotics during your time here.

Dogs

You’re allowed to bring dogs, but they must be leashed out of consideration of people with allergies and those who are scared of dogs. Dogs are prohibited from being at the swimming area according to rules of the municipality.

Leaders

During all activities at Kragenäs there must be a leader, 18 years old or above.

Nature reserve

Kragenäs is a nature reserve this includes the two islands out in the ocean. You are allowed to have activities inside the nature reserve, but it is not allowed to start a fire outside of the fixed fireplaces nor sleep in a tent in other places than the fields. Dogs have to be leashed.

Tobacco

According to the policy of the Swedish scout movement none of the guests at Kragenäs are supposed to be influenced to start using tobacco during your stay. Therefore, there are no marked places to use tobacco. If you must use it, please do so out of sight.

Silence

For the sake of both neighbors and other guests’ wellbeing you have to be silent at the campsite during 23.00-07.00. All eventual activities which can disturb neighbors or other guests on the campsite should be reconciled with Kragenäs.

Cleaning before leaving

Before you and your group leave Kragenäs you must clean the area where you have had your village. Because Kragenäs has ditches and draining inside of the fields it is not allowed to dig anywhere. Holes from tree poles etc. should be filled with dirt from “Frysplan”.

Digging and long tentpegs

Since there are cables under the fields you cannot use tent pegs longer than 30 centimeters.

Fire safety

To make it easier for you and your group to plan the layout of your camp, we have some safety regulations. It is very important that you follow these so that we all work together for the best possible security on site.

If you have any questions, you are always welcome to bring them up with the Kragenäs host.

Kitchen layout

The kitchen is one of the most dangerous places in your camp. Please keep the following rules in mind to avoid unnecessary accidents in your camp’s kitchen.

  • When using an open fire: An open fire for cooking must be under the open sky with at least 1 m distance (sideways) between the fire and the nearest tent.
  • When using gas or similar: Cooking may only take place under a ceiling if you use a canvas tent with a steel structure or similar, since light-weight tents catch fire far too easily. The distance between the burner and the canvas must be at least 1,5 m in height and 0,3 m sideways.
  • Build your fireplace on a sufficient height so that the surrounding ground cannot catch fire.
  • By every cooking place there must be at least one 6 kg portable fire extinguisher (the kind with powder). If you have an open fire there must also be a bucket of water and something to put out fire with within reach.

Gas

If your group is using a gas kitchen it is important to keep the following important information in mind. The following is stated in Swedish Law.

  • Mark the cooking place with a warning sign which reads ”Gasolflaskor” (gas bottles).
  • Do not keep more than 60 l of gas (equalling 2 model PC10 or 1 model PC6) in the same place.
  • Keep the bottles standing and secured against tipping. They must also be easy to remove in case of a fire.
  • If you are keeping gas bottles in a storage area, put them directly inside an opening and mark the storage area with a warning sign that reads ”Gasolflaskor” (gas bottles).

Distance between tents

Please follow these regulations to avoid the risk of fire spreading in case of an accident.

  • The distance between a cooking place and sleeping tents must be at least 8 m. The same applies to the distance between sleeping tents with a stove and other sleeping tents.
  • The distance between a storage area where gas bottles are kept and sleeping tents must be at least 8 m. No kind of fire (nor kerosene lanterns) is allowed in such storage areas.
  • The shortest distance allowed between sleeping tents is 3 m from canvas to canvas.
  • Light-weight tents may be placed in clusters of up to 6 tents each. To count as a cluster, the distance between canvases should be no more than 1,5 m. The distance between a cluster and a tent outside the cluster must be at least 3 m.

We want to contribute to a better environment, that is why you can sort your waste and packages so that it can be recycled in a good way. All waste and packages are handled at our recycling station at Frysplan. 

Help us by rinsing all packages so that they are clean and dry when putting them into the bins, that helps keeping our recycling station in a good shape. If you have other types of waste like broken tents or hazardous waste, talk to us and we’ll try to help you.
