Dalafjallen Mountain in Sweden

 

The Dalafjallen are softer in shape than many of the mountains further north. Except perhaps Stadjan , which, on the contrary, most closely resembles a volcano. But south of Stadjan, the mountains even consist of a different bedrock than the rest of the mountain chain. Transstrands and Fulufjallen in Dalarna are made of Dalasandsten.

Do you want to avoid the congestion that is once again expected to be big in many places in the Swedish mountains this summer? Then I have a suggestion for a mountain hike that was completely uncrowded when we were there last summer, namely Hemfjallet in the Salen area in Dalarna .

The Coal Fields in Sweden

There are people who think Kolmarden is a zoo. It is in and of itself true that there is a zoo in Kolmrden. But that's not who IS Kolmrden.

Kolmrden is a forest, a mountain area, with old robbers' caves even, in what was once the border region (and still is - in and of itself) between Gotaland and Svealand . It is the fault slope with fantastic views over Brviken . And there are many beautiful forest lakes to swim in. Lilla Algsjon , Glottern , Svangbgen , Sorsjon and Naknen . To mention a few.

The Beautiful Coast Vattenriket In Sweden

Did you know that there is a Water Kingdom in Sweden? If you've read this blog before, you probably know that, because I write about the Water Kingdom from time to time. I have worked in Kristianstad, which is in Skane.

At the municipality even. And has a strong interest in nature. And then it becomes natural to constantly return to Kristianstad's Vattenrike, which is Sweden's oldest biosphere reserve and is then located in the municipality of Kristianstad in Skane.

Beautiful Visby Ring Wall in Sweden

There is something very special about Visby with its narrow alleys and its many roses. The Hanseatic city. In many ways it is completely unique in Sweden and is also a world heritage site.

And yes, it is above all the small central inner city I am talking about. The part of Visby that is Faroinside the ring wall.Faro Because that is the dividing line here. Today as in the Middle Ages.

Four years in a row, Kalmar won a vote as Faro summer city of the year Faro before the competition was canceled because it was the same city that won all the time. 

I have mostly been in Kalmar in connection with a couple of business trips and when one of my sons has played floor ball nearby. So actually I have never done any more Faro real Faro tourism in Kalmar, but I would love to do that someday.

Beauty full Island Stockholm Archipelago in Sweden

I must admit that I have not been very many times in the Stockholm archipelago. And that today I don't even have a clue of exactly which islands I've been to. A couple of times I have also gone by boat and only seen the islands from the lake side. Yet. I've seen enough to dare place the area this high on my list here.

It's also quite common for the capital's archipelago to top lists like this, so I'm not particularly worried that I've placed this archipelago far too high.

Rauk area at Gamle Hamn on Faro in Sweden

Got land in general is very beautiful in many places. But there is still something very special about Faro. The island which lies just north of the main island and which has such nice rauk areas, a very flat but special landscape with juniper moors, marshes and pine forests, sandy beaches and fishing villages. Many stone walls and stone houses.

The rauk area at Gamle Hamn is the most famous and most characteristic rauk there called the rauk port Faro Kaffepannan Faro or FaroHunden Faro. This is a nature reserve where there is also an old burial ground from the Viking Age and the remains of a medieval church.
