About the Emigrant Trail
Through forests and meadows, past cottages and stone walls, this 110-kilometre-long hiking trail winds its way through the landscape. The trail alternates between footpaths, forest roads, gravel roads, and smaller paved roads, following in the footsteps of Vilhelm Moberg.
The Emigrant Trail passes through the part of Småland that for a long time formed the borderland between Sweden and Denmark, when Blekinge was still Danish territory. The rocky and infertile landscape forced the people of Småland to find creative solutions in order to make a decent living. Countless stone walls along the trail bear witness to this history—a story of human determination and perseverance.
Emigrant Trail, Stage UL4: Långasjö – Yxnanäs – Part of the Smålandsleden Trail Network
This stage takes you through the characteristic landscape and natural scenery of Småland, mainly along forest paths and gravel roads. A few shorter sections follow paved country roads.
Before leaving Långasjö, you can refill your water bottle at the hostel and stock up on supplies at the local store. The route then offers views of pastures, stone walls, farms, and forests. At Lake Flaken, we recommend taking a break at the pleasant shelter overlooking the lake, or perhaps enjoying a swim at the Häljanäs bathing area. The trail then continues through forests and rural countryside, with several sections consisting of paths winding through peaceful woodlands.
Upon reaching Djupasjön Nature Camping in Yxnanäs, you will have the opportunity to refill your drinking water and take a swim at the nearby bathing area.
A few highlights along the stage:
Gastakullarna – According to local folklore, this is a haunted place. Legends also claim that both silver and gold are buried here.
The Giant’s Throw at Lake Flatsjön – In the borderland south of Lake Flatsjön, you will find rugged terrain covered with large boulders, including a “rocking stone” perched on bedrock that can be set into motion by pushing it.
Distance: 21 km Estimated hiking time: 5–7 hours

Regelingen
Leave only footprintsEverything you bring into nature should be taken back with you. Bring a bag to collect any litter and food waste, and dispose of it in a rubbish bin or take it home.
Light fires safelyThe crackling of a campfire is enchanting, but always use a designated fire pit or choose sand or gravel as a base. If conditions are dry, skip the campfire altogether and enjoy a packed lunch instead.
Follow outdoor etiquetteThere are outdoor toilets at some locations along the trail. In an emergency, if you need to relieve yourself, do so well away from watercourses and paths used by other visitors. Dig a small hole and cover it with soil or a stone afterwards.
