Welcome to step into a nature photograph - where meadows, dense forests and peaceful lakes await. Roam freely or choose a guided experience with knowledgeable nature guides. Discover the hidden gems, breathtaking places, secret valleys and get to know the local nature up close.
The private boutique villa that makes up Hello Sunnanhed is a unique experience. Here you are surrounded by undisturbed nature, mountain cows, endless forest and deep blue lakes. Silence, presence and creativity are the motto. Look out through the opening panoramic window and enjoy the tranquillity.
The designed environment allows creativity to flow and the impressive ceiling height adds an extra wow factor to the experience. Why not take a bath in the luxurious copper bathtub overlooking the expanse? Maybe a yoga lesson or a nice massage?

Experience the fishing trip of your dreams
Some come to catch big fish, others to learn techniques, others for the experience of nature, food and culture. No two visitors are the same and there is no static template for how your big fishing experience will be. Everything is customised based on your wishes for your dream fishing trip.
Since the experienced guides at Anglerman fishing have already thought of everything around, you can relax and just enjoy the present, nature, water and fishing.
Here you can fish in everything from deep forests and fly fishing for grayling and trout in changeable waters, to char fishing in wild mountain waters. Northern Dalarna has one of the southernmost, most unspoilt wildernesses in Sweden. Having no mobile phone coverage, not seeing any other people and not noticing any other traces of human impact besides the road we travel on - it will give you a special feeling and memories for life.
Anglerman fishing trips take you to places you never knew existed and help you find the right spot to catch the fish you're hoping for.

Mythical sauna ritual in the adventure mine
Where the plains of southern Dalarna meet its vast forests is the small town of Tuna Hästberg with a mine that closed in 1968. A new and different adventure awaits! A unique world is hidden underground.
In 1998, some young boys entered the mine through a small hole. More than 30 years later, Adventuremine has become one of Sweden's most popular destinations. Let your curiosity lead the way through thrilling and adventurous experiences. Adventuremine offers Via Ferrata climbing and guided exploration. But here you can also experience the unique Lady of the mine sauna ritual.
The legend says that the lady of the mine watched over the mine's localities and could warn the miners of impending dangers, approaching landslides or show them where the rich deposits were. The lady of the mine is a creature that has played a major role in history and has given rise to many of the stories that are still told about the mine. The guided experience Sauna by Elin is a tribute to the lady of the mine, who with her mystery and knowledge can make you forget both everyday life and reality for a while.
Let your senses travel from warmth to coolness, from soft to hard, male to female, from breathtaking to peaceful. Enjoy a relaxing sauna far from your mobile phone's notifications, of course combined with a lovely dip in the mine's crystal clear water. Feel the endorphins flowing in your body and the power of the mountain walls.
