Hykjeberget, Mountain summit in Älvdalen, Sweden.

Hykjeberget rises 594 meters above sea level, featuring a 100-meter vertical cliff composed of porphyry rock and sections of sandstone formations.

In 1734, botanist Carl von Linné visited Hykjeberget to document its plant life, discovering numerous species that were uncommon for the region.

A stone bench at the summit commemorates Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia's wedding gift from the local community in September 2016.

The northern entrance through Klittenvägen leads to a parking area with picnic tables and signs directing visitors to a 20-minute hiking trail.

The mountain hosts over 40 linden trees, forming one of the largest linden populations in Dalarna, thriving due to the warm microclimate.
