Hemberget

Hemberget. 205 meters above sea level.

Perhaps Hemberget got its name because it is so close to home? The mountain is only a few kilometers from Tavelsjö village, and with surprisingly beautiful views of Lake Tavelsjön, Avan, Trehörningen and Storön. In the 1940s, Hemberget was a popular destination for school excursions. Children liked to play at Hemberget, even in their free time. In winter, the children skied down the slopes. It was unusual for the adults to accompany the children to Hemberget without having an errand, they had other things to do. Berry picking and mushroom picking could attract the adults to Hemberget.
