Summer and Autumn

Season Change

The Mountains in summer are absolutely beautiful with green as far as the eye can see and endless hiking trails for all ability levels. The southern section of the Kungsleden trail starts adjacent to both Gammelgården and Högfjället. The first 2.3 km of mountain views can be enjoyed by everyone with an asphalted path, wheelchair and stroller friendly for all to enjoy.

The trails heading up Storfjället start just across the road. Buy a trailmap and head out for an enjoyable adventure. There is a local tradition in Sälen to wager on when the last of the winter seasons snow will disappear.

The local’s marker is a heart that is formed on the side of the mountain from the snow melt. It is visible from the village and usually can be seen up till Midsummer.
