Dalarna County is undoubtedly the top destination for Swedish tourists all year round - and it is easy to understand why. You will discover an outdoor haven with a cultural heritage like no other. Start your voyage of discovery near river Osterdalalven in Gagnef. Immerse yourself in craftsmanship and tradition - in Dalarna these two things are key features of life. At Walstedts Lantbruk you can feast your eyes on fresh produce in the farm shop or admire works by local artists. There is a café and a restaurant where you can watch the world go by. Stop by the garden center Basna Tradgard if you travel to Gagnef in the summer. Learn more about the history of southern Dalarna by visiting Gagnefbyn. Enter the well-preserved village to explore the daily lives of ancient residents. These log cabins and wooden mansions are painted in a traditional red hue known as 'falu red'. When planning your trip to Gagnef, remember to book some exciting outdoor activities. White water rafting on Vasterdalalven is an experience you will not soon forget. To arrange this adrenaline pumping adventure, contact Vasterdala Fors och Aventyr. If more tranquil activities rock your boat, you can visit the local nature reserves Djurmoklack or Gravsbuan. Gagnef is situated 30 minutes from Borlange by car. If you book a weekend trip to Gagnef, the most convenient way to get here is to catch the train and transfer in Borlange. The area is well connected to Borlange by bus. The cultural vibrancy and pristine nature makes this a great destination all year round. You can go skiing in winter and during the summer you just crisscross your way through the enchanted forests on the area's hiking trails. Book a weekend trip to Gagnef or treat yourself to a longer getaway. - Top hotels in Gagnef - Top Holiday Rentals in Gagnef ![Quality Hotel Grand Falun](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/600000/598500/598500/6e80b974_y.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=340&ch=150) ### Quality Hotel Grand Falun Trotzgatan 9-11 Falun £55 8 Feb - 9 Feb includes taxes & fees Stay at this business-friendly hotel in Falun.
