From the riverside path, there's a climb to the west. It climbs the mountain in small switchbacks through almost entirely cleared land. The view from there is very beautiful.

A beautiful, secluded route on the western shore of Lake Sommen. If you have more time than "just" the small southern loop, I would recommend a detour to the sanatorium and hiking this section as well.

Following the road north from the sanatorium, you'll reach this small boat dock. Apart from the jetty, there's nothing to see there. However, it's still in use, although currently (spring 2025) there are only a few boats moored there.

Built by architect Cal Westman in the early 20th century, the sanatorium initially served as a care facility for wealthy tuberculosis patients. After tuberculosis declined in Sweden, the facility was converted into an institution for alcoholics around 1960. The building is still intact today.

If you're approaching from the west after visiting the sanatorium, you might easily miss this small, inconspicuous staircase. If you follow it, you'll come to a path leading to a deserted stretch of beach. I definitely recommend taking this little loop.

There are two parking bays, each with space for four vehicles. Next to the reserve's information board, there is also a sign listing the various hiking routes. Of particular note is the Braille information board.

Beautiful spot on the shore of the lake where you can enjoy the view across the water. Sommen one of the greatest clear-water lakes in Sweden. It has around 260 islands, although legend tells that there are 360 - one for each day of the year.

The Trollstenen are easy to reach on foot or, if you're more experienced, by mountain bike. The huge rock resting on three stones is worth the detour. There's also a nice story about it on the signs (even in German)❤️.
