Discover Limedsforsen

Limedsforsen offers specific places to visit when planning a trip focused on swimming, culture and river views. Äråbadet, the Sixten Jernberg Museum and the Limedsforsen rest area each represent a different side of the place.

Swimming and leisure activities at Äråbadet

Äråbadet is open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Check swimming times before your visit, as they may change. Facilities include an outdoor pool and a children's pool. There is also a river with a sandy bottom, a jetty and a small slide. In addition, there is a playground, a volleyball court and a kiosk. These facilities cater to different interests: the pools and river area offer opportunities for swimming, while the playground and volleyball court provide other leisure activities; the kiosk is an additional facility. If you are travelling with children, you can make a note of the children's pool and playground as two separate options for planning your day. If a particular feature is essential, check the current facilities in advance, as visitor amenities may change.

The Sixten Jernberg Museum

The Sixten Jernberg Museum is dedicated to one of Sweden's most successful athletes of all time. It spans two floors, with most of the exhibits on the lower floor. A statue of Sixten Jernberg depicts the cross-country skier using the diagonal stride on a slight incline. The description specifies both the diagonal movement and the gentle incline, two concrete aspects of the pose depicted. The museum thus brings together a personal connection to a Swedish athlete, an overview of its layout across two floors and a specific motif from cross-country skiing.

Restaurant information

There are no stairs leading to the Restaurang Sixten Jernberg restaurant. If this specific access arrangement matters for your plans, check the current situation before your visit, as facilities may change.

Rest area with a view of the Västerdalälven

The Limedsforsen rest area offers a view of the Västerdalälven river. Reports from 2011 place a statue of the cross-country skier Sixten Jernberg there. If you are specifically looking for the statue, check in advance whether it is still at the rest area. The river view and the statue offer different reasons to stop: one draws attention to the landscape, the other to the athlete. The rest area thus complements the museum's focus on the athlete with a view of the river.

Find a hotel for your stay

If you are looking for a hotel in Limedsforsen, first consider which of the interests mentioned are important for your stay. Swimming at Äråbadet, a visit to the museum or a view of the Västerdalälven are different priorities to consider when planning your trip. Then compare the specific details of each hotel with your own requirements.
