Stättared - Veddige

After rounding Stora Hornsjön, the trail climbs up to marvellous natural forests. At the hills known as Veddige portar, your legs have to work hard to pass through the Viskadalen valley. The River Viskan, the northernmost river in Halland, runs through this deep valley. The last section of this hike goes along the winding valley of the River Skuttran.

Things worth seeing on this stage:

Dalen timber cabin

Beautiful view over the lake Hornsjön

Stone slab with inscriptions

Stone bridge from the past

Veddige portar
