Welcome to friendly Älvsbacka, situated in the middle of the province Värmland in Sweden. An area of unspoiled nature, deep forests, gushing rivers, dark forest lakes and untamed wildlife. Do you want to experience tranquility and closeness to nature, or prefers more adventurous outdoor activities, You have come to the right place! Älvsbacka is the ideal place for trail hiking, swimming, canoeing, camping, horseback riding, mountain bike riding and fishing. All easy accessible, only 45 km:s from Karlstad.

We have three prepared hiking trails passing through old troll forests, with magnificent views and hidden dark forest lakes. Why not prepare your own food at some of the pre-built fireplaces? Or spend the night under the stars at one of the "vindskydd" A "vindskydd" is a over-night shelter, an open-air construction protecting you from the wind and rain, with 4-6 sleeping places.
