Description

Pilgrimsleden Västra Värmland, starting in Västergötland, goes via Lurö and continues across Värmlandsnäs through Säffle, Arvika and Eda municipalities to the Norwegian border. On the Norwegian side it continues towards Trondheim, former Nidaros.

Throughout Arvika municipality, the St Olof's (St Olav's) Cross on wooden posts will guide you all the way from Stömne in the South, at the Säffle border, up to Krokebol in the North East, by the Eda border. The markings are the same as for other Pilgrim's Trails in Sweden and Norway.

The trail mainly goes through easy terrain, but some stretches follow common roads to connect the 56 km through Arvika. You will experience all sorts of surroundings - meadows, farm land, small villages, gravel roads, asphalt roads, forest roads, forest paths, historic and cultural landmarks.

Surface

The trail passes through all kinds of terrain - meadows, agricultural land, small communities, gravel roads, asphalt roads, forest roads, forest trails and past cultural historical landmarks. Often the substrate is old marsh roads with grass in the middle, but also single-coated logs, forest trails and asphalt or gravel roads for car traffic.

Hills

Mostly flat and easily wandered land, but along some forest parties, the rise may be a bit more powerful, such as the Majsak plain in Sölje.
