This stage from Ljusnedal to Funäsdalen and further to Bruksvallarna is the recommended choice for hiking for safety reasons.
Description
Hike the short and pleasant stage between the churches in Ljusnedal and Funäsdalen! You walk on roads at the start and end, with a trail over Röstberget in between. Halfway, there is a nice rest area with views of the Ljusnedal landscape.
Along the slope, you can see old potato fields, which were located high up to avoid frost for as long as possible. The route is easy to walk and is used for local pilgrimages between the two churches.
In Funäsdalen, you can visit Fjällmuseet, which highlights the rich and distinctive culture of Härjedalen, or explore the heritage park with buildings dating from the 1500s to the 1940s.
Walk in the footsteps of the pilgrims
Romboleden (Rombo Way) is a pilgrimage route that people began using in the 11th century. The Romboleden is Sweden’s longest pilgrimage route at 900 kilometres long. It starts in Köping in Västmanland and finishes in Trondheim on the Norwegian Atlantic coast. If you walk the entire trail, you will experience a beautiful and varied landscape. You will walk on old chalet paths, over mountains with magnificent vistas and along narrow country gravel roads. You will find easy one-day walks with cafés along the way, and long treks that take several days. The route often passes through small villages.
