A nice, short hike along the river. Several boards inform you about the city's industrial past, but also about life in and around the river.

Great area to have some rest from several of the trails going close by. It’s located in Ettö nature reserve in a place called svartvik. Here are good benches a fireplace and a nice sandy beach. And a really great view over the lake.

With a length of about 200 km, Nissan is one of the longer rivers in southern Sweden. The river originates from a raised bog south of Jönköping and initially has a northwestern direction. It then turns south-west and flows through Småland and Halland until it flows into the Kattegat at Halmstad. Several industrial plants were built on the river that took away the fluidity of the water. The salmon and trout of the river are important for anglers. In 1062 the naval battle took place here at the mouth of the Nissan River. Along the Nissan there is an old trade route, which was formerly called Nissastigen and is now called Riksväg 25. There has also been a railway line from Halmstad to Värnamo since 1877, which follows the river in the southern part.
