The Grinnsjön Loop Trail is a medium-length hike where you walk mainly along Lake Grinnsjön, but also partly around Lake Bergsjön. Along the trail there are prepared wind shelters and barbecue areas. On the way you’ll encounter botanical points of interest, ancient remains, and fishing opportunities in the lakes (please note that a fishing permit is required).

Between the lakes lies Grinnsjö Cottage — often called the “pearl” among the mountain cottages. It is beautifully situated on a hill overlooking flower meadows.
