This area can be quite wet, so the ground is sometimes muddy. You’ll find charming little bridges crossing the water and plenty of wooden boardwalks to keep your feet dry, a really fun feature of the trail!

The short detour from the oak forest trail is well worth it: great boardwalks and a wooden platform with a seating area and impressive views.

Pretty red farmhouse with some garden plants. There is a rest area with water and toilets.

This is a "boring" regular shelter overlooking the moor. The shelter is located next to the old railroad, which today is a paved embankment. Good to know if you are passing Dalsjöfors and need shelter.
