From the Church of Färila, the trail runs down through the centre of Färila. Near the campsite you will find the Fleet Path (Flottarstigen) that follows Ljusnan – an amazingly beautiful stretch! Flottarstigen is the crown of the hiking trails in Färila – with the sound of rushing streams and the sights of green-glowing nature. You might also get a chance to spot beavers in the area.
