Old-growth forest left alone for hundreds of years, with so many rocks that forest machines could not enter, remnants of fires of ages ago, animal tracks of wolverines, bears and lo, trees chopped by hand two centuries ago, swamps, dams, planted trees and a hill with “harvested forest”, which created stunning views. The path from Lannabergsvägen Norr via Amsterdamm to the deserted village of Ejheden is an outright journey through time and automatically introduces you to different kinds of forestry. […]
14.30 You arrive in Furudal. You pass the Tempo store, Hillboms Bistro and the bakery Snitths. You turn left and then on the Näset Timmervägen to the right. Plenty of pine trees: now you understand how Furudal (pine valley in Swedish) got its name. After a sharp turn, you see a familiar farm emerge: Näsets Marcusgård. When you have parked your car. Your host Mireille shows up to welcome you. 14.45 It snowed today which will show you a Narnia […]

It is the perfect weather for it: -15 °C, snow slowly falling down, nothing but winter whites and greys outside. As soon as my friend Lotje and I step through the door of the little bakery in our village, we are in another world. The smell of fresh baked bread and pastries surrounds us. The yellow light from lamps and candles is very welcoming. It was time to test one of our new activities that shows why the countryside is […]
Winter is here in Furudal! This year, the snow arrived at the beginning of December and often stays until the spring, around April. Throughout the winter months, our forest is covered in a thick blanket of snow, and the lakes freeze over with ice that may be several feet thick: a real winter wonderland. It’s time to make the most of the snow and enjoy the beauty of the Swedish countryside in our area. To make that easier, we are […]
We were looking for more fun activities for our guests in spring and autumn. Well, we had heard from locals that one of their favourites is fishing, and that is fantastic to fish in the area. But how do you prove to non-locals that you can fish very well here if you are not a fisherman yourself? And to make it more difficult: to non-locals who do not know the area and only stay here for a few days? We […]
We are in the middle of an incredibly warm, un-Swedish summer. As long as you don’t have to work, perfect for long days at one of the beaches along the lakes or in a hammock in the shade.

A nice afternoon guaranteed. First, you drive to the […]
