Opplev grenseregionen Bohuslän, Dalsland og Østfold
Together, the border region of Bohuslän, Dalsland, and Østfold offers almost everything – sea and forests, stunning national parks, fascinating culture, unique rock carvings, historical fortresses, delicious food, and, not least, friendly people.
Bohuslän
Bohuslän features a unique archipelago with smooth granite cliffs stretching towards the open horizon. Here, you can enjoy kayaking, refreshing sea swims, seafood buffets, boating, hiking, seal safaris, exciting cultural experiences, and much more.
Dalsland
In Dalsland, it’s not just about the nature – it’s the variety that makes it special. Within a radius of just a few miles, you can experience plains, coastline, mountains, fairy-tale forests, hills, and inland seas. This diversity is likely what inspired Prince Eugen in the late 19th century to describe Dalsland as "Sweden in miniature."
Through Dalsland’s pristine nature, you’ll feel a boost of recovery and well-being – whether you’re here to hike, paddle, cycle, climb, fish, sail along the Dalsland Canal, swim, or simply relax and take in the surroundings.
Østfold
With its vast plains and fields, Østfold boasts a rich cultural history, featuring unique fortresses, ancient churches, and rock carving sites. Around the lakes and waterways of Inner Østfold, there are excellent opportunities for fishing, paddling, cycling, and hiking. In the coastal areas of Outer Østfold, you can enjoy the beautiful archipelago, go sailing, or try your hand at crab fishing.
Trollhättan/Vänersborg
For those who haven’t been to Trollhättan-Vänersborg before, the wealth of experiences here often comes as a surprise. Within a radius of just 20–30 kilometres, you can enjoy wild, beautiful, and varied landscapes, inland coastline, as well as indulge in film, culture, art, shopping, excellent food, and the buzz of city life.
