Upplandsleden, etapp 23, Skattmansöådalen–Härnevi IP

Section 23 goes from Ytterkvarn in nature reserve Skattmansöådalen to Härnevi IP’s Sports ground. You’ll then continue through a rolling forest and farmland landscape, which, over the course of the walk, gets flatter and more open.
Not far from the start, close to Ytterkvarn’s impressive stone arch bridge, you can take a brief detour to a charcoal burner’s hut. Outside, there is a rest spot with a view. You’ll walk 6 kilometres along paths and forest roads before reaching an old barn where you can stop for a break, unless you want to continue another kilometre to Häled’s beautiful rural community centre. A path leads you down to Torstuna, and on to a country road, past vast fields to Torslunda. The trail splits here. If you turn left, it’s a longer section through two small nature reserves (see Walk 23:1), and if you go straight ahead, you’ll go straight via Kylsta to Härnevi.

Difficulty level: Medium, roads and forest paths.
