Tiveden National Park
Tiveden national park is one of southern Sweden's wildest forests. It is a rolling, mountainous and stony area.
Magical enchanted forest
The Tiveden National Park is the magical enchanted forest between Lakes Vättern and Vänern.
Once a hideout for robbers and bandits, the woods are a mighty natural experience.
Among the tall trees and mossy rocks are 25 km of marked trails, well labelled and easy to follow.
“All you need is a pair of sturdy walking shoes,” says Tor Axelsson, guide in Karlsborg.
Information centre
A manned information centre can provide you with tips and maps, and even food for your lunch bag.

The easiest way to approach the national park is from Highway 49 between Karlsborg and Askersund. A narrow road, Tivedsleden, runs through the area; it passes Stenkällebergen, where there is a parking area and an information display. There are 25 kilometres of hiking trails which pass the most interesting sights.
