Route Description for Nulltjärnsrundan
The hike starts and ends at the Vålådalens mountainstation. Here you can buy food, lock your bags, go to the toilet, take a shower or stay over night.
The Nulltjärnsrundan hike starts over a meadow behind the nature museum “Naturum”. Through a leaf forest with a broad path all the way, over footbridges, and past history paintings along the trail. You will see mountain views, mires with maybe some cloudberries, and go through a ravine from the ice age.
The GPS track will lead you over the ravine to a little lake, known as Nulltjärnen. You will find that the beach here is very welcoming. Here you can find benches, toilets and fire places. And of course, it’s a great place for a cooling dip with mountain views.
Then you will follow the road to Kyrkstenen and then follow track 284 and walk the last kilometers on a running track through the forest. When you see the sign for the house of “Vålådalens mountainstation” you are back at the start.
Insider Hints
About 656ft from the beach “Nulltjärn” there´s a house that you can rent on Airbnb.

Bring swimsuits! The mountain station has a Sauna and Hot tubs, and you can swim in the lake!

Tons of interesting things to see aside from the forest and mountains, there are history paintings along the trail as well.

Short and easy hike. We bought some sandwiches from the mountain station. It's not the best, but it's not that bad either.

Absolutely love this trail, even though the lake is so cold. We arrived around 10am and it's not that busy.
