During summer, our coast comes to life and offers nice food at our restaurants and coffeshops, comfortable accommodation and last but not least a wide range of different activities.
You can go on a tour along our coastal roads and visit many lovely locations; "The Maiden Coast" - goes from Gävle in the south to Ragvaldsnäs in the north. Alternatively, the "Coastal Road" - starting in Jättendal, and stretches to our landscape neighbours in the north. Along these roads, you will find sites frequently, with everything from experiences, sights, ancient monuments, hiking trails, cultural trails, shops with high-quality handicrafts and excellent golf in Sörfjärden, etc.
Our culinary Nordanstig has three fine, summer-open restaurants along the coast; Restaurant & Cafe Måsen in Stocka, Restaurant Sjömärket in Mellanfjärden and "En liten sjökrog" in Sörfjärden. We truly recommend these!
For families with children, the coastal stretch offers sea bathing at several sites - one of Northern Sweden´s longest sea bathing beaches is in Sörfjärden! A must for the children (or for the whole family for that matter...) is our Enchanted Forest in Mellanfjärden. A family adventure and theatrical experience, where you as visitors stroll at your own pace and meet the various characters of the forest.
