**Obs! The footbridge over the railroad at Västermyren is closed.
May 26 - July 6, 2025: The bridge over the railway at Västermyren is closed, according to the Swedish Transport Administration. During these weeks, you can instead walk the gravel road via Sörmyren, in a tunnel under the railway.
Important: Do not cross the railroad where there is no tunnel or bridge!
Omschrijving
This short section will take you from the tourist hotel in Älvkarleby to former farm Långhäll and the county border towards Gästrikland on forest paths. After a few hundred metres along the road, the trail turns off into the forest. A couple of kilometres later, you’ll pass Mount Höghällsberget. There are remains of a hill fort at the top of the mountain, and an old charcoal burner’s hut a bit further on. Just before Långhäll, you can see three cairns and an oval-shaped stone circle.
At the end of the section, there is a wind shelter, but there is no road leading there. You will either have to turn back, or continue your hike on The Gästrikland Trail. This trail passes through nature reserve Långhällskogen, and on to the Hemlingby recreation area outside Gävle.
Difficulty level: Medium, brief section along forest paths.
