Gästriketriangeln

Three sections – one great experience. Gästriketriangeln takes you through deep forests, along narrow ridges shaped by the ice age, and across high ground with sweeping views

Current information:
The trail has been affected by Storm Johannes and may be difficult to access until trees that have fallen across the trail have been removed by the property owners. Always take care near fallen and leaning trees.

Take great care, avoid difficult sections and turn back if conditions feel unsafe.

The route forms a triangle between Rönnåsen, Åmot and Jädraås – three places in Ockelbo municipality, each with its own charm and close connection to nature.

The newly built trail between Rönnåsen and Åmot offers a hilly, wilderness-like stretch through untouched forest. From Åmot, the hike continues through a historic ironworks area, past glistening fishing lakes and a secluded forest cemetery, all the way to Jädraås. The final section back to Rönnåsen leads through classic northern pine forest and across esker ridges – a landscape shaped by time and ice.

Each leg is around 20 kilometres, making Gästriketriangeln ideal for a three-day hike. You can stay overnight in shelters along the trail or book accommodation in Åmot or Jädraås. The entire route is marked and described in the Naturkartan app – just search for "Gästriketriangeln" for more details.

Here, you’ll find silence, vast views and trails that carry both history and promise.
