A wonderful stepped cascade above Klimpfjäll, Kullafallen is a glorious sight. Just downstream from here, the Dårronbäcken empties in to the beautiful Kultsjön by the village. During winter Klimpfjäll is a ski resort with a slope that's even illuminated at night.

Idyllic pitches right on the water. A night costs 100 kroner, but there's no infrastructure.

Once you've left the forest and the first climb behind you, look forward to a short break here with a great view. You can stay overnight - or, like us, sit out a rain shower on the way back.

Located in the beautiful Fatmomakke. Used for supplies. Perched high as protection from animals.

Great waterfall. The whirlpool holes in the rock alone are a highlight!
