Experience the outdoor tastes of the edible country. Storlien and Bydalen are perfect places for experiencing Nordic outdoor gastronomy. Enhancing your experience in nature by spending a bit of extra time and effort on food is so worth it.

Jämtland Härjedalen – a taste of nature

At latitude 63 north, the sun stays up almost all around the clock during summer. The gulfstream makes it over the mountains and warms up the mountain region of Jämtland Härjedalen. The long summer days makes everything taste just a little more. We have set up a table for you to prepare a meal after foraging for ingredients.

There are two tables in Jämtland Härjedalen. One is near a scenic lake in Bydalen, in Bydalsfjällen.

And the next table you will find on the border between Sweden and Norway, in Storlien, run by Restaurant Flamman. Just on the shore of a mountain lake in the middle between Östersund and Trondheim.
