Tibrandshögen

The remains of Tibrandsholm castle stand on the largest hill along the shoreline of Rödön, offering views across the surrounding waterways.

The fortress, constructed in the late 14th century, served as the base for tax collector Tibrand who directed his bailiffs throughout the region.

The site connects to local folklore as an observation point for the reported Lake Storsjön monster, with marked paths displaying alleged creature tracks.

Visitors can access the monument through a forest trail from the parking area, with protective shelters available near the archaeological site.

The nearby nature path leads to Vikekärret wetland, where lady's slipper orchids bloom abundantly during the midsummer period.
