View of Hällingsåfallet Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

A magnificent waterfall and very well-developed for tourism. It's best to combine the waterfall with a hike along the gorge.

June 11, 2025,Hällingsåfallet canyon natuurreservaat
Impressive walk along the Hällingsåfallet, a 43-metre high waterfall that plunges into the gorge. This is the longest in Sweden (800 metres) and is home to various types of rare and beautiful mosses.

I was surprised by the high water level of the river, which split in several places and flooded the trail here and there. Wading is then the …

From the hiking car park, the path leads over many tree roots along the river. After just under 2km you reach the entrance to the canyon, which at 800m is considered Sweden's longest canyon. The path now leads relatively steeply up over the rocks. Further up, the edge is secured and you can take a look into the depths. Later, …

The 1,000 Komoot tour leads to the impressive Hällingsåfallet waterfall. At 40 meters, it is one of the highest waterfalls in Sweden, and it also falls into Sweden's longest water-filled gorge - at 800 meters, it is quite impressive.

After a 30 km drive on a dirt road, you reach the Hällingsåfallet waterfall. There are two parking lots. The first …

The waterfall is about 40 meters high and plunges into an 800-meter-long gorge.

A spectacle that can be admired in several places.
In addition, the waterfall, through its spray mist, creates …

The way from the lower parking lot is well marked with red rings on the trees. Back on the gravel road.

This afternoon we arrived at the Hällingsåfallet waterfall, a real highlight and natural spectacle. After that we went on a circuit through the canyon of the Hällingsån. A great tour and a piece of "wild Sweden" 😀⛅.
