The Uppland Trail, section 15, 17.5 km

The start of section 15 is just by the church in Västland, a small village with ancient beginnings. The end is Marma by the River Dalälven, which you can get to by train. The first few kilometres are along easy-to-walk paths almost without rocks and roots. You’ll pass Tingshällarna, a small area of flat rocks in the middle of the forest. Six kilometres into the section, close to the overgrown Lake Trusksjön, is the Honolulu Hut. It’s an open lodge where you can stay the night. You can’t book it.

The trail continues along varied paths, sometimes rocky and sometimes easier to walk. Before reaching the road number 291, the forest changes, and you’ll enter an area of sandy ground and pine forests. The last part is along smaller roads and wide paths. You’ll pass a wind shelter just by the water, with a view of Lake Marmafjärden. In Marma you will find a train and a bus station, a kiosk, and a beach.

Difficulty level: Medium, forest paths and a few kilometres on roads.
