I'm a Swede with two siblings living in Oslo, Norway, and from our chats and their shared photos on our family chat I can tell that either way the Norwegians are clearly more nature inclined than Swedes even. For them, "gå på tur" ("going in a hike tour") is apparently something that can be done more or less any day of the week, while in Sweden you probably plan that for the weekends mostly.

Mentioning that as the article was in fact primarily using Norway as an example.

But then, also in Sweden I think we might have a somewhat higher inclination to be outside than in many other places. Like, even in the freezing winter, the number of bicyclists commuting to work in Stockholm is quite large.
