Description

The Vallaviken picnic area is located in the Bokhultet nature reserve right next to Södra (south) Bergundasjön Lake. The area includes a jetty, grilling area, lavatories and parking. It’s a good place for people who want to rest their legs after a hike in the reserve, or for those who would enjoy a good barbeque. The picnic area is right off the trail that runs around the entire lake. It’s a perfect place for those who would like to launch their canoe and enjoy an adventure on the lake.
