Töfsingdalen, Nationalpark

The national park is located in Älvdalen municipality, in the middle of Långfjället nature reserve. Töfsingdalen is one of the most inaccessible environments we have in Sweden. There are no other ways to get there than by ski, on foot or by helicopter. In winter, however, it is possible to get to Hävlingen's fishing camp by snowmobile from Grövelsjön.

Entrance Hävlingen The most common way to enter the park is from Lake Hävlingen and the bridge over Storån at Särsjön. There is an information board about the park. From Grövelsjön's mountain station in the west, it is a 13 kilometer hike. It takes about 2½ hours to walk. From Idre to Grövelsjön mountain station, about 40 kilometers, it is about 40 minutes drive.

Entrance from Foskros A smaller gravel road follows Storån from Foskros to a shelter at Ängesildret. The road is quite bad, so the car must not have too low ground clearance. From there it is seven kilometers of fairly tough hiking to the national park boundary. There is an information sign at Hällsjöfors at the Långfjället nature reserve boundary.
