Take a spectacular 500 km journey through pristine wilderness in the northern mountains The Wilderness Road Mountain hiking on wheels

Photo: Magnus Ström mountain roaming Mountain tours in Jämtland and Lappland The Wilderness Road doesn t that sound tempting. A road through the wilderness from Strömsund in Jämtland over the mountains to Vilhelmina in Lappland, and then back to Strömsund via Dorotea and Hoting. The road passes through several places with exotic names like Gäddede, Stekenjokk, Klimpfjäll, Saxnäs and Borgafjäll. Photo: Åke Johansson house pets The road goes through Lappland s cultural districts, through alpine forests and above the tree line and the wilderness is just a hop, skip and jump away. So the concept of hiking by car is very real. When you get out of your car, you are in the wilderness... Above the tree line are vast mountain heaths and accessible peaks. The air is clear, the silence is deafening and the water is refreshing and, of course, drinkable. Out with the mug! Whether you head out on a multi-day hike with a tent or take a short car trip, the Wilderness Road is the best way to get up above the tree line. Don t drive too fast, stop frequently and take in the mountain atmosphere and scents during your long or short trip. Photo: Magnus Ström Explore the Wilderness Road!

Strömsund/FROSTVIKEN Foto: Isabella Jacobsson Don t miss in Strömsund The local heritage centre with Jorm the Giant from the movie about Dunderklumpen. On Öhn Island is the Beppe Wolgers Museum with puppets Hungran, Busan, Gäspan, Kraman and Sigrid. On the E45 south of Strömsund is a campsite with cabins, free swimming in three heated outdoor pools and a nine-hole golf course. Through the kingdom of bears Whether you are starting from Strömsund or Vilhelmina you ll travel through forests and mountain Sami cultural districts before you reach the tree line. Photo: Strömsund Turism In Dunderklumpen s footsteps Follow Dunderklumpen and his friends on their journey up over Ströms Vattudal. A map with several filming locations is available at the tourist offices. More info: +46(0)67016400, +46(0)672105 00 If you start in Strömsund, you ll drive through an area with the world s densest brown bear population and past Hällingsåfallet Falls. Past is probably the wrong word. You will, of course, want to stop at the 43-metre high waterfall that plunges into a 800-metre long water-filled canyon. In the sunlight you ll see three to six rainbows in the water vapour. To really see the canyon formation it s best to start from the rest area 2,5 km south of the falls. There is a marked trail leading from there that follows the Hällingsån River s canyon upstream. Frostviken Ceramics, with its beautiful hand-thrown pottery and summer café, is a few miles away and is also a given stop. The Gäddede Tourist Office has an exhibition about the area. The animals that you haven t seen for real can be seen here. If you don t want to go underground you can choose the Bjurälven River Nature Reserve right next door, which is an easy hiking excursion. The Bjurälven River carved out a karst area with caves and sinkholes that hurl the river underground. The river winds around down below, and above ground there is a botanically interesting and unique area. The tour will be an even greater experience with a guide, who can be booked through the Gäddede Tourist Office. Past Ankarvattnet, continue on Stekenjokk Road and you ll soon be up past the tree line. Photo: Lotta Falk Mountain Moose In Stora Blåsjön s magnificent mountain world is an enclosure with tame moose Hilda and Herbert and their calves. Take a guided tour and experience an unforgettable close encounter with our good-natured moose. There is also an igloo and café. More info: www.mountainmoose.se +46(0)67221120 Great fishing... Around Blåsjön Lake and Jormvattnet there is exclusive fishing and knowledgeable guides. Take the time to stop and try your luck. Several popular trails start from Ankarede, the Sami church site with its kotas and chapel. Coral Cave (Korallgrottan) was discovered in 1985 and over three miles of paths and caverns have been explored so far. With a guide and protective clothing, a visit to the cave is something you ll never forget. Observatory in Frostviken The observatory is located in the Brännklumpen mountains, 772 meters above sea level, 3 km north of Gäddede. You can get there by foot or tracked vehicle and take a guided tour that includes our closest star, the Sun, using the 16-inch Medea telescope. During the dark sky season, we look at other celestial bodies and the Northern Lights. Guided tours. Mer info: Gäddede Tourist Office: +46(0)67210500

Photo: Peter Lydén What an experience riding in the mountains... The Vilseledaren guide centre s goal is not just to provide you with a pleasant experience, but to take you off the beaten path. You can join in several activities, all of varying character and degree of difficulty. The idea is always the same, though: setting your heart aflutter. Are you eager to: Track wildlife, go on a beaver safari, abseil/rappel down Hällingsåfallet Falls, go crawling in Coral Cave, sniff out some gnomes, take a food tour with the chef, fish exclusive char or tour Mt. Kalberget? Book your adventure at: www.vilseledaren.se +46(0)67210500 sniff out some gnomes hällingsåfallet Korallgrottan Photo: Tommy Andersson Photo: Tommy Andersson Photo: Göran Bäckström

Do you dare face the wilderness? vilhelmina Photo: Magnus Ström www.magnusstrom.se Photo: Magnus Ström Photo: Magnus Ström Hike & Bike The mountains offer everything from summer skiing to mountain hiking to biking and enjoying the scenery. There are 300 kilometers of trails and dirt roads in the area around Stekenjokk and Klimpfjäll. This makes the area an exciting hiking and biking paradise. A beginner s bike tour, suitable even for families with children, goes from the Stekenjokk plateau down to Klimpfjäll. It s an 18-km long gravel road that is mostly at an altitude of over 1,000 meters. For the more experienced there are alternatives like Tjåkkola and Norgefararleden. In winter the area has over 3,000 km of trails for skiing and snowmobiling.

Rent a boat for a lengthy trip or find a nice beach for a picnic and maybe a swim. More info: Saxnäsgården +46(0)94037700 Foto: xx Photo: Hotell Wilhelmina Enjoy a spa After a day in the mountains, it s nice to indulge in a little recuperation.

Photo: Magnus Ström, www.magnusstrom.se In the Shadow of Marsfjället Past Ankarvattnet the road climbs further up toward Stekenjokk Plateau. The road over to Klimpfjäll usually opens in early June. Snowdrifts can sometimes be as high as 7 meters. That s when the Road Administration s huge snow blowers face their toughest job. Located in Klimpfjäll is the historic Norgefarargården. It was formerly a way station for the mountain farmers trading trips to Norway. Norgefararleden Trail also starts here, which used to be a winter road for horse-drawn sleighs going to the markets in Norway. It s now a beautiful hiking trail to the Susendalen Valley in Norway. Don t miss in Vilhelmina Walk around Vilhelmina s church town with roots in the 1700s. The church town has a local history museum, country store, Sami gallery, handicraft shop, art studio and café. Lakefront walk along Volgsjön Lake. Have a coffee at the café or a meal at one of the restaurants. Culture week/homestead days the second week of July. Fatmomakke has always been a gathering place people have been here since the Stone Age and the area has been a Sami church site since the 1700s. Fatmomakke has some 80 kotas, 20 timber church cottages and a church from 1184. An attraction of cultural interest is the dazzling white Ricklundgården situated on a hill in the middle of Saxnäs. The property has remained intact since the 1950s and all the artists who were guests of Emma and Folke Ricklund have left paintings behind. The exhibition of over 500 paintings is well worth a visit. Now follow the shoreline of beautiful Malgomajsjön Lake on toward the mountains along streams and forest lakes. Fishing opportunities abound. An obvious stop is Trappstegsforsen, a several hundred metre long staircase rapids that is a popular photo stop. In the Shadow of Marsfjället is the name of the book in which Bernhard Nordh describes the hard life and hardships that settler Lars Pålsson endured in the mid-1800s. Today there is a duplicate of the cabin in Marsliden where he lived with his family. Stop by and take in the environment and atmosphere. Next stop is Vilhelmina... ricklundgården norgefarargården fatmomakke Photo: Magnus Ström Photo: Magnus Ström Photo: Magnus Ström
