Holidays in Hammarstrand

Sick of being an armchair traveller? Keen to experience the real deal? Hammarstrand is the perfect place to start. It sits among the gorgeous lakes, mountains and snowfields of Jamtland County. (You might have to sidestep the well-trodden tourist trail, but that's what travelling is all about!)

It's located 430 kilometres north of the capital of Sweden, Stockholm.

Don't be alarmed if you see like-minded tourists at Sticksommen Yarn Shop.

We recommend jumping in a car and going to Bispgarden. It's about 20 kilometres to the southeast and the home of the Bispgardens Golf Club and Geralund.

Ostersund, 85 kilometres to the west, may be right up your alley. You can use it as a base when swinging by the Jamtli, the Froso Zoo and Badhusparken. If you'd like more persuading, other nearby sights include Ostersund Town Hall and Storsjobadet Water Park.

Getting outdoors and discovering the local landscapes doesn't get any better when your options include activities like snowmobiling and ice skating.

Snowboarding and skiing are your best options if you're searching for some exhilarating activities to do in the wintertime. Be sure to pack your scarf as the mercury can really plunge!

Connect with the history geek within by wandering around some traditional villages. They're excellent places to find out some secrets about the region's past.

'There is no love sincerer than the love of food,' according to George Bernard Shaw, but add travel to the mix and it's a match made in heaven. You're invited to merge your two greatest loves by eating and drinking your way through Jamtland County.

Want to know some of the most common ingredients used in cooking here? Get ready to taste elk and lingonberries in a few of your meals.

While Hammarstrand features a variety of scrumptious foods, don't miss vendace roe (vendace caviar) and janssons frestelse (potato and anchovy casserole). Considered local classics, you'll have to put them on your must-try list if you truly want to taste this destination.

If you never say no to dessert, you're not going to be disappointed. Be sure to order saffransbullar (saffron buns), a tempting treat that's sure to satisfy your sugar cravings.

To beer or not to beer? That is the question. Of course, the answer is always beer. When you're in this corner of the world, Carnegie Porter is the one you want.

Desperate for something that'll put some hairs on your chest? Then take a sip of glögg (mulled wine). Ask the bartender if it's good in any mixed drinks. Failing that, order up a shot and throw it down neat!

Do you like discussing the texture, structure and balance of a delicious drop of wine? Or would you rather cork it and just enjoy it? Bacchus and merlot are what you should ask for here.

Before you pack up and wave "Hej då", why not spend the remainder of your holiday allowance and treat yourself to some lasting reminders of Hammarstrand?

With some planning, getting to Vaernes Airport (TRD), the nearest airport, shouldn't be too hard. It's 270 kilometres west of downtown Hammarstrand.
