Styggforsen — Attraction in Rättviks kommun

We took this trail with our 7 year old son. We weren't sure what to expect, we visited spontaneously. We ended up loving this place! It was well maintained, there were great information signs placed around, and the environment was just breathtaking! The geological aspect is just incredible!

You arrive to a free parking on bitumen road beside the log house café. Dramatic nature with steep rocks all around the waterfall. You can walk above and around the fall with a security fence and bars to hold on to. Beautiful views.

Styggforsen waterfall, trail around, nature surrounding, the views are amazing! The walk was quite up and down and took approx. 30-45 minutes with stops in order to enjoy the beauty. The cafe was unfortunately already closed when we´ve arrived, so we couldn´t explore that. The walk is very interesting for families with kids too!...
