Go hiking on Isälvsleden

Isälvsleden is varied and follows old paths, trails, and small roads through beautiful and easy terrain. There are great fishing opportunities along the way (fishing license required).

Several rest areas and shelters are found along the trail, as is an overnight cabin with four beds which are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Along the route you will find sights like active mud volcanoes at Lerfallet, the enchanting old pine forest in the Valfrid Paulsson Reserve, and one of Västerbotten’s largest sand dunes at Juvikskammen. At Djupsund await boats for an exciting water crossing where you must row across to continue your journey. The trail is suited for both hiking and mountain biking during the snow-free season, and it can be experienced either in full or as shorter sections. Experience a piece of Västerbotten’s natural history!

Sights:
The waterfall at Lake Ristjärn forms a miniature landscape with active mud volcanoes.

Missutjärn is one of the most beautiful small lakes, surrounded by an old-growth pine forest straight out of a fairy tale.

One of Sweden’s largest sand dunes is Juvikkammen on the edge of the Aborrträsk swamp, where you can also do some excellent fishing.

Cabins for spending the night and grill areas are located along the trail. The trail passes many waters that offer excellent opportunities for fishing.
