Caf\u00e9 and Restaurant<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As early as 1928, the first kiosk was built on Tossebergskl\u00e4tten, where you could buy home-baked bread and coffee. Nowadays, the caf\u00e9 and lunch restaurant is open during the summer. Many people have tried the classic V\u00e4rmland dish \u201cmotti with pork\u201d here. In addition to motti and pork, they serve great shrimp sandwiches and coffee and ice cream.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opening hours Tossebergskl\u00e4tten<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The road up to Tossebergskl\u00e4tten is closed with a barrier and is not passable during the winter. In the summer, the barriers are kept open and you can come up to see the view. Sometimes the upper barrier is closed and then you have to go on foot. It\u2019s not far to walk, but it\u2019s steep. The caf\u00e9 and restaurant is open every day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the summer. The observation tower is only open when the restaurant is open. The same goes for the service houses with public toilets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Observation tower<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re not satisfied with the view from the mountain, you can take the steps up to the observation tower to see even further. In clear weather, you can see up to 80 kilometers. The first observation tower was already in place in the late 1800s. At the top was a flag declaring the union between Sweden and Norway. The current tower was inaugurated in 1934.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legend has it that you could see seven church towers, count and see how many you can see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selma Lagerl\u00f6f wrote about <\/strong>Tossebergskl\u00e4tten<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is said that Selma Lagerl\u00f6f must have gotten the inspiration for G\u00f6sta Berling\u2019s Saga<\/em> when she was standing here at the top and looking out over the landscape. Maybe she saw a bear. In any case, she renamed the mountain Gurlita Kl\u00e4tt in the novel, and some might remember the chapter about the big bear on Gurlita Kl\u00e4tt. And when it comes to V\u00e4rmland\u2019s \u201cnational anthem\u201d V\u00e4rmlandsvisan, it is said that Anders Fryxell must have found the words to it in this very place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giants at 343 metres high<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tossebergskl\u00e4tten rises 343 metres above sea level and you can get there on a two-kilometre \u201cserpentine road\u201d rising over 200 metres. Once at the top, you\u2019ll be rewarded with a spectacular view. The name \u201cTossebergskl\u00e4tten\u201d suggests that in folklore there were believed to be giants and mountain people living there. \u201cTosse\u201d is thought to come from an older dialect where \u201ctusse\u201d was giant and \u201ctoss\u201d meant troll. The trolls and giants on Tossebergskl\u00e4tten are said to be kind, so even children can be safe at the top.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Serpentine Road<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before a traffic road up to the top was built, goods were transported to the kiosk and caf\u00e9 with a horse and trailer. Tourists used to come by boat on Fryken and get off at the pier in St\u00f6pafors. They then hiked through the forest up to the mountain.  The construction of the traffic road in the 1960s resulted in a sharp increase in the number of visitors. There are about 10,000 visitors every year. But it\u2019s not just those who want to look at a view or have a coffee. If you want to take a faster way down, the brave can contact the Solsk\u00e4rmarna club, hang-gliders who see Tossebergskl\u00e4tten as their home mountain. Also, don\u2019t be surprised if you come across roller skiers going up the road for training. Take it easy on the curves, you never know what you\u2019ll come across.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
