Vildmarksvägen – Strömsund
Come for the silence, find the warmth
Strömsund forms the gateway to the Vildmarksvägen (The Wilderness Road). From here, the route continues through Sweden’s sixth-largest municipality by area, across the Frostviken Mountains and over the spectacular alpine plateau of Stekenjokk, in a landscape as grand as it is tranquil.
Discover unique attractions such as the mighty Hällingså Waterfall, the Sámi church site at Ankarede, and the mysterious Coral Cave. Here, you are immersed in an active reindeer-grazing land, home to Sweden’s densest brown bear population, with a silence that invites reflection. Whether you seek horseback riding in Jorm, dog encounters in Vedjeön, hiking in the Bjurälven Nature Reserve, or a taste of life in Norråker, the journey along Vildmarksvägen offers a quiet yet warm experience.
Strömsund is easy to reach by car, bus, or train via the Inlandsbanan railway. For air travelers, both Åre Östersund Airport and South Lapland Airport in Vilhelmina provide convenient access.
Visit Vildmarksvägen – experience magnificent nature your way, whether from the comfort of your car or on foot.
