Sävsjön Dam and Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The dam offers a nice vantage point. You can take a look at the small waterfall on the back, but it is rather unspectacular

Älgstigen and Myrstigen Trail Signpost

Highlight • Trail

Moose often leave their droppings in the 'älgstig', and their hidden resting places can also be spotted in the taller grass. If you walk quietly, it’s quite possible to spot moose in the clearings.
