Bohusleden: Etapp 09 Bottenstugan to Lysevatten — stage notes and photos.

Running through Svartedalen, the Black Valley, this is a challenging section of the hike, with a lot of climbing and descending. There are plenty of lakes, but few moving rivers, so be aware of water needs. There are several good huts on the trail, as well as a lot of places to stop and camp.

Accommodation & Shopping

Vindskydd Stora Hästevatten

Only a few kilometres from the start of the trail, this hut has a fire pit and wood store and is right next to a large lake. The trail is very good to this point. There is no toilet, however.

Vindskydd Härsvattnet

Deeply cool-shaped huts mark this location. Their tent shape and half doors make this a very distinctive spot. The view is good over the lake and benches surround a fire pit. No toilet.

Sights
