The sea and lock were nice, the rest could be skipped, walking on freshly asphalted roads is not thrilling, I can't understand who finds that nice, it was a flop

A beautiful singletrack trail runs along the lock of the Dalsland Canal between Lelang and Foxen. This trail is partly rocky and rooty, and leads over a wooden boardwalk. There's a café near the lock keeper's cottage.

My husband spotted the moose in the wild around midday. Despite having his camera at the ready, he was unable to take a photo. The picture shows a moose in a similar location on a different day.
