It's simple — an adventurous life is a life well-lived. So dust off your passport, pack your bags and say hello to Gagnef!
It's 210 kilometres northwest of Stockholm, Sweden's capital city.
The peaceful sounds of nature are waiting for you at Frostbrunnsdalen Valley. It sits just 25 kilometres away, so you won't need to be stuck on the road all day. Siljansnäs Naturum, 25 kilometres away, is another recommended choice.
Are you a keen sports buff? Then look into the event schedule at Lugnet, located 35 kilometres to the east in Falun.
Once you've grabbed your pass and trail map at Romme Alpin, you won't want to waste time making your way to the top of the slope! You might also like to hop aboard the chairlift and check out the runs at Kungsberget Ski Resort.
Like the sound of Hange Bridge and Strandbackens Folkpark Venue? These awesome attractions are in Dala-Floda, just 19 kilometres west of Gagnef. Or perhaps the Jussi Bjorling Museum and the Borlange Geological Museum are more your thing? To visit them, travel to Borlange, 20 kilometres east.
Go on an adventure and see what's on offer in Falun. This destination is 30 kilometres to the east and not too far from the Falun Copper Mine, the Dalarnas Museum and Stora Kopparberg Church. That being said, don't miss Kristine Kyrka and the Mine Museum either.
There's a whole new world of fresh flavours waiting to tap dance across your taste buds in Dalarna County. With plenty of tempting things to gorge on, all you need to bring with you is a solid appetite — and perhaps your stretchiest trousers.
Are you partial to lobster? What about lingonberries? Whether you're into them or not, they are two traditional ingredients commonly used in the cuisine here.
When the locals talk to you about their favourite foods, you're likely to hear tunnbrödsrulle (hot dogs with mashed potato) or janssons frestelse (potato and anchovy casserole) uttered a few times. These signature recipes form part of the area's identity and should be on any foodie's list.
If you love dessert, you're not going to be disappointed. Make sure you try saffransbullar (saffron buns), a tempting treat that's guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Are you ready for a drink? Wet your whistle with a glass of Carnegie Porter, a brew that ought to be on your bucket (or pint) list.
Glögg (mulled wine) is what most locals have when the evening calls for something with a little more punch. Ask the barkeeper for a taste and see if it tickles your taste buds.
Be on the lookout for bacchus and merlot on the wine menus. They're popular local specialities for both vino savants and novices alike.
"Vi ses senare" doesn't have to mean farewell for good. Why not keep a few Swedish kronors for your next holiday?
Time to fly home? Pack up your bag, set an alarm and map out a route to Arlanda Airport (ARN). It's about 180 kilometres to the southeast.
