Jämtland Triangle, Mountain hiking trail in Jämtland County, Sweden.
The Jämtland Triangle is a 47-kilometer mountain hiking trail in Jämtland County that connects three mountain stations: Storulvån, Blåhammaren at 1086 meters, and Sylarna. The route winds through varied alpine landscapes and forests at different elevations.
The routes across Jämtland County began as trade and travel paths connecting settlements through the mountains centuries ago. These old connections form the foundation of the trail that exists today.
The trail passes through areas where Sami communities continue their traditional reindeer herding practices today. Visitors can observe how these nomadic traditions shape the landscape and daily rhythms of the mountain regions.
Mountain stations along the route offer accommodation, hearty meals, and facilities including showers and saunas for hikers on their multi-day journey. Plan your visit for the warmer months when the mountains are most accessible and weather is stable.
The three legs of the Jämtland Triangle differ in length: Storulvån to Sylarna is 16 km, Sylarna to Blåhammaren 19 km, and Blåhammaren back to Storulvån 12 km. The trail is used in both seasons, by skiers in winter and by hikers and cyclists in summer. It is reached by road at Storulvån, by bus, taxi or car.
