Parts of stage 11 are redrawn. Where the trail splits from Gimodammslingan to continue west towards Österbybruk, it previously went on the way to the rest area at Sågarbo. Now it is redrawn so that it instead goes along the path.
Signs are still missing where the path splits. If you come from the Gimo direction, continue straight ahead along the road, where the trail splits, if you want to walk Gimodammslingan. If you want to go towards Österbybruk, turn left onto a path.
Omschrijving
The section takes you through varied forests and across bogs between Gimo and Ӧsterbybruk. Along the way, you’ll see remains from the time of the iron mills. From the parking area, you’ll walk along a gravel country road, heading west. After 2.5 kilometres, you’ll turn onto a path, passing a clear-cut area. Once back in the forest, you’ll reach the ruins of the saw mill, and rest spot Sågarbo.
Crossing grounds rich in mushrooms and berries, and another clear-cut area, you’ll reach the wind shelter at the halfway point of the section. You’ll follow a log-driving channel through old peat harvesting ground Glamsmossen and the coniferous forest beyond, passing some great swimming and barbecuing spots. Where the trail splits shortly thereafter, turn left into Ӧsterbybruk and the old mill area. Ӧsterbybruk has a campsite, a shop, a café, restaurants, pizzerias, and accommodation at Wärdshuset.
Difficulty level: Medium, small, easy-to-walk forest paths, a few kilometres on a road.
