Im Norra Kvill Nationalpark
Tour / hiking / bike / ski / Hiking
With an area of 114 hectares, Norra Kvill is one of Sweden´s smaller national parks. Founded in 1927, it can definitely compete with its big brothers in the north of the country in terms of age. No trees have been felled here for 150 years. The plant world is correspondingly rich. Pine trees up to 350 years old stand between dead wood and huge moss-covered stones. Two embedded lakes deepen the naturalness of the landscape. Even if the park is located away from major traffic routes and with almost no cell phone reception, surrounded by large forest areas, it is still relatively easy to reach. Accordingly, many visitors find their way here and you will hardly be able to hike through the area alone. The starting point for visiting the national park is a hiking car park in the immediate vicinity of the national park border. A 2.5 km long and a 4 km long hiking tour are offered on a hiking board and flyers. Both tours are marked and have signposts at junctions along the way, so that you can get by without a hiking map. On the first section, both tours use the same hiking trail for 800 meters and also end on this section again. Keeping to the right, the paths separate after another 50 meters. To the left, the short tour just goes around Lake Stora Idgölen. 500 meters straight ahead you reach Lilla Idgölen, a quiet lake covered with water lilies in the middle of the jungle. You circle this lake extensively and after another 900 meters you come to the highest point of the path, the viewpoint Idhöjden, from which you have a beautiful view of the forest area to the west of the national park. After 400 meters downhill you come to the small circuit coming from the left and now hike back to the starting point on a common path around Stora Idgölen.
Description of the tour
Man beachte den Übersichtsplan am Ausgangspunkt der Wanderung. Die ausliegenden Flyer helfen bei der Orientierung, sind aber nicht unbedingt notwendig, weil die gesamte Wegstrecke gut markiert und an Kreuzungen ausgeschildert ist.
