To get to the viewpoint you have to be able to hike properly, sometimes quite steep

It‘s near a swamp. So you have to bring your own water. At our visit it was a bit dirty ans we had to clean up first. Firewood is difficult to gather.

The 140 km long body of water is the outflow of Lake Tolken, which lies west of Ulricehamn. The river flows through Borås and then takes in the rivers Häggån, Surteån and a few others. The river flows into the Kattegat about 15 km from the center of Varberg.
