Lögdeå: Nature, Hiking and Culture

Lögdeå offers several concrete starting points for planning your trip: hiking, outdoor activities, the Lögdeälven, and art and cultural heritage. The Lögdeälven is classified as an area of national interest for nature conservation and is part of the Natura 2000 network. This gives you a clear choice when planning: should you focus on trails, river activities or cultural sites? This question can help you weigh the destination’s different aspects according to your interests.

Hiking and outdoor activities

The section of the Lögdeälvsleden between E4 Lögdeå and Ormaggan is nine Swedish miles long, or 90 km. Both figures refer to the same length: one Swedish mile is equivalent to ten kilometres here. The endpoints help you identify the section described when planning a hike.

For planning purposes, this route information differs from the outdoor activities at Hallberget: here, it is about a section between two points, while there, it is about several specific facilities in one place. Hallberget has a floodlit running, exercise and cross-country ski trail. There is also a sledding hill with a barbecue area and an outdoor gym. Lögdeå Sportklubb organises health-promoting activities for all age groups. Mountain biking is also one of the activities in Lögdeå.

The Lögdeälven: Fishing and swimming

The Lögdeälven flows through Lögdeå and is widely known among anglers. Salmon, sea trout and grayling are fished there, and the fishing is considered high-quality. There are also sandy beaches along the Lögdeälven, inviting you to swim. The river thus offers two different focuses: fishing for specific fish species and swimming at sandy beaches. When planning your trip, you can decide whether to include the river more from an angler’s or a swimmer’s perspective.

Art and cultural heritage

Baudin’s Art includes a gallery in Lögdeå. Baudin’s Art features metalwork and glass art by artist couple Linda and Mattias Baudin.

Visits to the glassworks in Lögdeå can be arranged by booking in advance. Walk-in visits are not available; check the current details before setting off.

Åbergsgården is a 19th-century farmhouse from Ångermanland. The estate is intended to be preserved as a site of cultural and historical value and made accessible to the public to an appropriate extent. If you are considering a visit, find out in advance about visiting options. The historic farm is the main attraction here; Baudin’s Art complements the cultural experience with metalwork and glass art.
