On Hjortenleden you walk on fine gravel roads through agricultural landscapes and villages, mixed with smaller paths through the forest. You pass everything from Knallakorset, Näcken to hydropower plants and mills. If you unpack swimwear, there may be an opportunity for a dip in the lake! You can start in several different places, choose yourself!
