A whole that was amazing. Good trails, well marked in beautiful forests and through rolling landscapes. The accommodation at The Lodge stands out with a high level of service and nice rooms.

The gpx tracks could not be downloaded to the mobile. The trails could only be seen on the trailforks app. Your rec. on trails was good except for the Kristineforsleden, which some parts were overgrown.
