A little shelter on the Södra Kungsleden. There is a fireplace and wood at the shelter and you can get water from a nearby lake. You can also find some decent tent sites here.

In my hiking map, the hut is marked with the symbol for overnight stays. But there is only one circulating bank. The hut is clean, but has no solid floor (sand) and smells musty. Since it only has one window, it is a bit dark. There is no place nearby for a tent. Lake Busjön is close, but I couldn't find a place to swim. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether to take water from the lake to drink. Filtering or boiling is then certainly necessary. Ants run around everywhere, even in the hut. I didn't notice any mice though.
