Lace up your boots and find peace here in Orsa Grönklitt
The beauty of hiking is its simplicity. Sneakers and a backpack with a thermos and coffee are enough for a wonderful day trip. If you are looking for greater challenges, we will help you with the right equipment at the Längdcentrum, where you can also rent walking poles and baby carriers for children. The Siljansleden trail passes through the area and just a few kilometers away is Fryksås fäbod with miles of views over Orsasjön and Siljan. Another popular tip is the hiking trail around Rädsjön – perfect for a nature-friendly trip at a leisurely pace.
Want to get your heart rate up? Try Söderbacken for a steep challenge or Mellanbacken for a longer climb. If you prefer softer terrain, there are several flatter options to choose from.
During late summer and autumn, the forests also offer mushrooms and berries – nature's own pantry right outside your door. Do you need equipment or tips on tours that suit you? At Längdcentrum we will help you all the way. And don't forget to bring a coffee from Baka Kaka before you set off.
