A very interesting little vehicle collection. Typical Swedish, I'd say.

Here, on the hill, in a typical location, there are several burial mounds about 20 meters from the path to the lake. It's not easy to find, but the atmosphere is wonderful.

Here you can grill your sausages or just rest and watch waterfowl.

If you're really interested, you should also go to Fryksta, at the southern tip of Lake Fryken. Since 2016, the steam locomotive that once ran here on the "Fryksta - Clara Elfs" line has been standing there. And here is the text from the sign: Railway embankment of Sweden's first public railway. The eight-kilometer-long line was opened in 1849 for the transport of iron and coal from Lake Fryken to the Klarälven River. Pig iron, barley, and other goods were transported on the return journey. The line was initially a horse-drawn tram. In 1856, the first steam locomotive, Fryckstad, entered service. The line was closed in 1871 with the opening of the state railway line Karlstad-Arvika. Apart from the station in Fryksta, part of the line near Illberg has been preserved.

Norra Hyn is the village on Lake Södra Hyn, described in the previous tip. The place is completely unspectacular, and the marker here was placed on the banks of the Klarälven River. A magnificent river, but not the most beautiful spot so close to the busy road.

From here, you can start a lovely walk around Lake Södra Hyn through the reed meadows. On the slope northwest of the lake, you'll find more burial mounds about 20 meters from the path. They're easy to miss, so keep your eyes open.

Angler parking lot on the busy Route 62. Across the street, the road is being rerouted away from the shore and a wind turbine is probably being built. I wouldn't go there specifically, but if you want to stop on a trip north, you can.
