Dalarna, Sweden in miniature
Dalarna County, nestled in central Sweden, is filled with natural beauty in the shape of hiking-friendly forests, mighty lakes, mountains and flowery meadows . With its all-encompassing landscapes, it’s easy to see why Dalarna has been described as a “miniature Sweden”.
Culturally speaking, two of Sweden’s most iconic symbols hail from Dalarna: the elaborately decorated ‘dalahäst’ (Dala Horse) and unmistakably Swedish shade of ‘Falu Rödfärg’ (Falun Red) that adorns cottages across the country. Dalarna is also the place to visit if you want to experience a midsummer celebration with all the trimmings. Come June, join Swedes from across the country and head to Tällberg, Rättvik or Leksand – idyllic spots known for their wonderfully authentic midsummer festivities
