Description

This stage takes you along paths once used by miners and peasants when they made their way to church. At Södra Brunnsjön, a number of mysterious ruins are waiting to be explored, and the lakeside beach will almost certainly tempt you to take a refreshing dip. The trail includes the 10,000-year-old shingle embankments and the remains of a canal in the heart of the forest. At the southern end of the stage is Hyttfallet, which was of major importance in the development of iron processing throughout the whole of Nora Bergslag. Our resting place is at the St. Gålsjön lake, or Storsjön as it is also known, which has a wind shelter, fireplace and toilet.

Jag gick den här etappen i juli från Hammarby till Uskavi. Jag tycker att det är en jättefin och välskött led. Omväxlande skogstyper och underlag. Väldigt lite skräp. Vi tog med oss lite som vi hittade men som sagt, inte mycket alls! Ett trevligt lunchställe i form av vindskydd vid Storsjön.
