Fishing at the river Tegeforsen
River Tegeforsen between Åre and Duved is a nice, family-friendly fishing spot where you can fish trout and char from shore. Parking is possible right by the river - either down by the riverside or on the parking space which is around 10-15m from the fishing spot. The ground on the parking space is paved (somewhat uneven), while the ground by the riverside is grassed. The fishing spot is flat, but there is a short slope down from the upper parking space. Pack a lunch and bring the family along for some great fishing!

The mine village at Fröå Gruva has since the late 1980s successively been restored to a cultural museum site. Due to the industrial era with active copper mining between 1744-1918 many people lived around the area of Mt Åreskutan, it was in fact the most populated area in the region at that time. There is a calmness around the area of Fröå Gruva with a wonderful view facing Mt Åreskutan and a rich flora and fauna that thrives thanks to the soil rich in minerals. The terrain is mostly flat, at some places somewhat hilly and at the restaurant/café there is an accessible ramp at the entrance.
