Description

The water flowing in Sölvbacka streams is part of the Ljungan river, which has its headwaters in Helags and Härjångsfjällen.

Here in Sölvbacka strömmar, the river drops 60 meters over a distance of six kilometers from Storsjön to Över-Grycken.

On this stretch, the river flows, rapids and floods in many different ways. Therefore, you can experience a rich wildlife. Spawning trout, watching ospreys and otters thrive here.

The forest that borders the river stretch also offers high natural values. There you can find old spruces and pines, but above all a forest that can look after itself.
