Hike
Bruksvallarna is located in the middle of beautiful mountain terrain in an area with an impressive 60 peaks over 1000 meters. Our most famous peak is Mittåkläppen with its characteristic mountain ridge. Below Mittåkläppen are about 20 shacks along the beautiful valley.
The sights include our old mines, which show the story of how it all began once upon a time. During the summer, mining days are organized together with the village team. Then coffee and charcoal buns are offered, which are cooked over an open fire.
