Stage 3 STJÄRNFORS – NYBERGET

The trail passes along the edge of the Kindla Nature Reserve, an area completely devoid of roads or paths, giving you a true wilderness experience, and where bears, wolves, and lynxes are frequently sighted. You can climb the viewing tower at Kindlahöjden or Mackarsberg for an incredible view of the sprawling forests of Bergslagen. Visit Stuttjärn, a farm of cultural and historical importance located at the top of a moraine slope. In the miners’ village of Nyberget you can spend the night at a hostel or in one of the shelters located beside Lake Dammsjön. At Lake Rasbacktjärn, which borders on the Kindla Nature Reserve, there is a resting place with a wind shelter, fireplace and toilet. There are also wind shelters inside the Nature Reserve that are looked after by the County Administrative Board.
