Activities

We are open all year round, all seasons offer their charm and opportunities. Many of our winter guests take the opportunity to take a winter bath!

The lake
Here at Wood Wise Cabins, you always have free access to a rowing boat to get around our lake Krokvattnet. It glides along as easily in the water as the Black-throated Loon that you can see with a bit of luck. A canoe and two kayaks are also available, suitable for exploring the islands. Maybe you can find the ancient log boats at the bottom of the lake? The lake has clear and clean water, wonderfully refreshing for quick dips and swims. Or why not try your luck at fishing?

The forest
In late summer and autumn, you can pick baskets full of mushrooms and berries, or why not try to find red-listed species and signal species in our biologically rich forest? Many of the small wood mushrooms and lichens you can almost only see with a magnifying glass (you can borrow one from us), but they are incredibly beautiful and fascinating!

The campfire
Next to the water we have a nice fireplace where you can grill or just enjoy looking into the flames surrounded by the sounds of the forest. With a bit of luck, you will hear the hooting of the tawny owl when darkness falls, we have several owls in the area. Firewood is of course available on site.

Hiking
The forest is also perfect for both short and long hikes. The view from our own mountain Ebberudsknatten is fantastic! Wandering around our 40 hectares can be “good enough”, but if you want to see and experience more of Dalsland, you can continue from us and wander to, among other things, Skärbo nature reserve with the help of a map.

Miscellaneous
There are many alternative activities, everything from an art walk in Dalsland, Åmål’s Blues festival, Dalsland’s canoe marathon, Dalsland’s canal, high-altitude courses, Dalsland Swimrun, Dalsland X-Trail and much more. Why not use a glass house as a base for a few days’ excursions in the area?

But don’t forget to be lazy, it is also time well spent!
