Fishing

The Rörsjö lakes hold Sweden’s southernmost wild population of Arctic char. The Harrsjö lakes have both char and trout. Ice fishing for char is a winter highlight. In the northwestern part of Fulufjället, between the Getsjö lakes and the Harrsjö lakes, trout is abundant—even in the smallest pools. A Dala Mountain Fishing Permit is required and can be purchased online (open in new tab).

Njupeskär

Standing 93 meters tall, Njupeskär is Sweden’s highest waterfall and one of Fulufjället’s top attractions. The unique flora surrounding the waterfall includes species found nowhere else. From Njupeskär, it’s just a one-hour hike to Rörsjöstugorna. 

Old Tjikko

Fulufjället National Park is also home to the world’s oldest tree — Old Tjikko. Genetically identical for 9,500 years, this tree has grown from the same root system since the end of the last Ice Age. From its hilltop location, you’ll enjoy views of Lilla Rörsjön and the cabins beyond. 

Primeval forest

Fulufjället was once the seafloor, and the grooved sandstone formations still bear the marks of that time. Below the mountain plateau, a magical old-growth forest stretches out, with moss-covered stones, babbling streams, and a calm that feels like a fairytale. 

Naturum

At the national park’s visitor centre, Naturum, you can learn more about the area and its wildlife. You’ll also get tips for hiking routes, rest spots, and points of interest. Naturum is the best place to start your hike to Rörsjöstugorna — and it’s where you park. 

Cultural heritage

Around the cabins you’ll find traces of people who lived here thousands of years ago — from Stone Age tools to medieval boathouses and ancient sacrificial sites.
