The Café Korsäng building looks a bit unassuming from the outside, but the seating inside is very cozy, and they serve delicious cakes, coffee, and small savory snacks. Right on the side of the trail, a rare find on the West Coast Cycle Route. Next door is a small supermarket where you can stock up on essentials for the rest of your journey.
