Welcome to Backlunds Boende in Vikarbyn, with its red-painted buildings, wooden fences, and old-fashioned charm. Here, just seven kilometers from Rättvik, you can enjoy a peaceful stay with sweeping views of Lake Siljan and warm, personal hospitality.

You stay in a room or cottage, with bed and breakfast or self-catering, and can choose from everything from a traditional log cabin to a fully equipped house. The guest kitchen and lounge invite you to socialize, and the day starts best with a breakfast buffet featuring locally produced delicacies and freshly baked bread from our own bakery – preferably out on the terrace with Lake Siljan as a backdrop.

Backlunds is also an ideal starting point for cycling tours in the Siljan region. There are roads and trails for everyone, from family-friendly routes to challenging terrain. Bicycles and helmets are available to borrow, and the hosts are happy to share their best excursion tips. After a day of adventure, enjoy the evening sun, the tranquility, and the genuine romance of the valley.
