The Pilgrim Path
The Pilgrim Path in Dalsland winds through more than 100 kilometers of stunning nature. It starts in Vänersborg in the sounth and ends in Edlseskog in Åmål municipality in the north. The southern part is made up of country roads which are easy to walk, whereas the section north of Mellerud can be more challenging with smaller paths and hilly countryside.
If you like being active and comfortable at the same time, book a room at Upperud 9:9 – a modern hotel in a former granary located by the Dalsland canal. You’ll stay in the one hundred year old silos which are elegantly designed, with French balconies overlooking the water. The restaurant serves green, locally sourced food that is sure to satisfy your hunger after a day’s hike. The hotel is a great base for exploring the area by foot - heading south will lead you to past several medieval churches and the area surrounding Upperud is pure wilderness with breath-taking views of the Dalsland forests and lakes.
