Kycklingleden Trail – A Nice Hiking Trail Outside of Karlstad

Kycklingleden Trail – A Nice Hiking Trail Outside of Karlstad
This family's experience:

Activities: We hiked along the Kycklingleden trail, which is a beautiful trail that goes up and down and around Lake Vänern. We saw some steep parts of the trail where we needed to hold on to ropes fixed to rocks or trees. There are also some sculptures made of wood along the trail, including one that looked like a huge head made out of wood and another that looked like a wrinkled man with a long beard that turns into a root

Highlights: We loved hiking along the Kycklingleden trail! The trail was challenging but rewarding, with beautiful views of Lake Vänern. We also enjoyed the sculptures made of wood, which added a unique touch to the trail ✨
