Our guide takes you through this special environment and introduces you to the forest and the riverside. We pass beautiful viewpoints, where you look out over the special hilly ‘nipan’ landscape. Along the way we fire on the snow and enjoy coffee by the fire. Our guide knows everything about the area and can tell you about winter life, traditions and the special environment. During the Stone Age, for example, the area around the river Ångermanälven was an important meeting place. Our guide likes to tell you more. Do you already want to know more?

  • LIFE AT A “FÄBOD” AT MOBODARNA , GUIDED VISIT

    Experience life at a forest homestead, a “fäbod”, from the past with our guides Ylva and Malin!
    The “fäbodar” were an important part of northern farming up until the 1940s. The “fäbod” Mobodarna
    is set in the middle of rhe Ångermanland forest. That is where livestock grazed in summer so that hay on the fields surrounding the farms could be saved for the winter.
    In the early summer the young maids on the farm moved with the cattle to the “fäbod” in the forest.
    There they managed everything by themselves including taking care of the cows with everything
    that meant, milking, making sour milk and fermented viscous milk, separate cream, churn butter, cook
    soft whey cheese and make cheese. They also knitted a lot of what was needed in winter. At the
    weekends young men from the villages came for a visit and there was a lot of dancing and singing.

  • SPOTTING THE HIDDEN SIGNS OF THE FOREST

    Really seeing something in the forest – as well as understanding what you see –
    is something of an art. Wandering with our guide you will gain a first insight
    into that art. Coming across wildlife belongs to the highlights of the tour- roe deer, elks, foxes, and with some luck, maybe even a bear. Tracks, droppings, herbs, birds
    and other phenomena you might never see on your own. According to the
    season you will be able to pick mushrooms and berries, make a fire and try some
    of our local primary produce. We will wander through the deep Swedish forest,
    through farm land, along lakes and the river Ångermanälven and be surprised
    by what may turn up.
