Comfortable hostel accommodation in a calm, historic environment

The Gammelgården hostel is next to West Sweden's largest open-air museum, Gammelgårdens Friluftsmuseum. Spend the night here in a quiet cultural environment with the countryside just around the corner. Come and visit the open-air folklore museum and learn about a fascinating part of Dalsland history.

Grand old buildings

With the Dalsland Canal as the main waterway, this area is a paradise for canoeists and fishing enthusiasts. There are wonderful open views around the hostel and its historical buildings. Choose between a room in Herrgården, Gamla boningshuset, Stolpboden or Härbret, with either double or family rooms with access to a kitchen for self-catering.

See the history of Dalsland

At the nearby open air folklore museum you can learn about the history of Dalsland in a rural environment. In the same area you have the Dalsland Canal, where you can take a boat tour and go fishing, or just enjoy gliding silently along in a kayak.
