Ljungdalen

TIME : 2016/2/19 0:34:39

If you have your own transport, it’s worth the haul to the village of Ljungdalen, about 40km north of Funäsdalen along an unimproved, mostly gravel road. It’s slow going, but the scenery is spectacular; it looks like a glacier passed through here five minutes ago. Along the road are some Sami huts and a shop (with erratic hours, but open most days June to August) that sells dried or smoked reindeer meat. This is also one of the few areas in Scandinavia where the nearly extinct arctic foxes thrive. There’s a small tourist office here.
