Östra Härjedalen

The gateaway to beautiful Härjedalen

With Sveg and the scenic villages of Lillhärdal, Älvros, and Hogdalsbygden, Eastern Härjedalen offers a unique mix of tranquility and activity. Here, you’ll encounter deep forests, sparkling waters, and proximity to the mountain destinations of Vemdalen, Lofsdalen, and Funäsfjällen.

Whether you’re seeking high-speed skiing and snowmobiling in winter or peaceful summer hiking, cycling, and fishing, adventure is always close. Don’t miss a visit to Överhogdal Ancient Farm to see the world-famous Viking-era tapestries, or enjoy local flavors at the region’s restaurants and cafés. As the administrative center for the Sámi in Härjedalen, the area proudly preserves a living cultural heritage.

With the E45, its own airport, and the classic Inlandsbanan railway, it’s easy to access the heart of beautiful Härjedalen.
