Åre Park

Highlight • Rest Area

Between the central square Åre torg and the train station lies the beautifully landscaped Åre park. It is one of the few remaining green areas in the middle of the intensively developed tourist metropolis. There is also a nice playground here.

Åre Square

Highlight • Settlement

The central square of the town of 3,000 inhabitants is Åre torg. It is surrounded by hotels, restaurants, discos and shops. This is where locals and hordes of holidaymakers come together to enjoy the attractions of this ski resort, one of Sweden's oldest and most important.

Cable car Åre – Åreskutan

Highlight • Rest Area

With the cable car you can quickly get from the place to over 1,200 meters. From here, many mountain bike trails lead into the valley and you can continue hiking to the summit of Åreskutan.

Åreskutan – summit and Sweden's highest situated café

Highlight • Summit

Ludvig Tjärnström and Leslie Monroy run Sweden's highest café, the "Toppstuga" on the summit of Åreskutan at an altitude of 1,420 meters. It's definitely not easy, but they actually serve homemade cakes and waffles here. And they claim to have a dream job despite (or perhaps because of?) the absolutely crazy weather conditions. In 1892, Sweden's highest mountain hut was built, located in one of the most extreme climates in the world. Wind gusts of sixty meters per second and absolute world-leading icing as well as violent thunderstorms are not uncommon. The Åreskutan attracts like a magnet the low-pressure foothills from the Atlantic, which often make their way over the mountain range here. The material for the construction was transported up by horse-drawn sleigh. The café is not open every day due to the weather, but you always have the opportunity to seek shelter in the so-called shelter of the hut in the entrance area. Even when the "Toppstuga" is not open, there is a diverse selection of food and drinks in the cable car mountain station.

Åre Bergbana Lower Station

Highlight • Rest Area

In 1906 there was a proposal to build a mountain railway (Swedish: Bergbanan) from Åre to the summit of Åreskutan. The planned route went from Åre Torg, the central square in the town, via Östra Platån and Mörvikshummeln to the summit. However, the route was only realized as far as Östra Platån (near Hotell Fjällgården) and was built from 1908 and opened on March 7, 1910. Of all the lifts, only the Åre Bergbana starts from the historic town center.

G:A Brandstationen

Highlight • Restaurant

A very chic restaurant has been set up today in the "Old Fire Station", the "Gamla Fire Stations". The creperie, which is also available in Stockholm, Visby and Borgholm, tempts with a wide range of options - especially for vegetarians and vegans.
