Fall colors begin to brighten up the Oviksfjäll in late august/early september. The intense summer with many bright nights gives way to the beautiful fall-time.

In Sweden, we often experience wonderful moments with sun and bright colors during the days, while the temperatures already start going down during the fall nights.

Hikes in Jämtland in fall

Fall-time is ideal to explore the mountains and forests undisturbed on one of our well-kept hiking trails. At this time of year nature is at its most beautiful!

Bike Tours and Mountain Biking

In addition to hikes, our tour program also offers some appealing mountain bike tours. It is a special experience to explore the early fall with its colors and scents on mtb.

Collecting Berries and Mushrooms

The berry season in Oviksfjäll starts in the beginning of august with the first ripe cloudberries. The blueberries and cranberries can be harvested well into september. Mountain cranberries even tolerate the first frost.

Mustering of reindeer

The local Sami village Tossåsen performs its mustering of reindeer for 2-4 days between 12/09 and 20/09 each year. We are happy to invite guests to this event and explain the backgrounds of up to 6,000 reindeer being collected.

Beginning of the aurora season

The first dark nights start to come at the end of august. In recent years there have been wonderful northern lights as early as september. This is where this beautiful shot came from.

Taking Pictures

For amateur photographers, fall-time has a special appeal with its many new colors, even with bushes and mosses changing color. In this time, we like to take our camera along anywhere, like for picking berries or simply hiking.
