Jamtli offers an exciting journey through the history of Jamtland and Harjedalen. Here you will discover stimulating milieux and enjoy being part of history. The museum has permanent exhibitions about the region's past alongside temporary exhibitions of arts and handicrafts. Some exhibitions take up current matters of public interest and explore them from an historical perspective. Every summer, the open air museum turns into Jamtli Historieland (living history theme park). The historical buildings come alive with history and role plays, where visitors are drawn into eventful and playful stories from 1785 until 1975. Jamtli Historieland enables you, as a visitor, to associate with the actors who bring to life and portray people from the past. Jamtli gives access to our regional heritage and provides a place where we can discuss our values and life-styles, then and now. Jamtli gives you the opportunity to make the most of your visit. Perhaps you would like to bring your own picnic basket and spend your time relaxing in the stunning parks. Or you might want to meet the actors, such as Astrid and Sture who farm the Per Albin-torpet (The Smallholding) from 1942? Or you may be fascinated by the 1,000-year-old tapestries, "The Overhogdal Tapestries". You choose, so bring your whole family, your friends, your company employees or just come on your own to an enjoyable, entertaining and magical museum where you can see, touch and act!

We really enjoyed our visit to Jamtli. They did a great job of displaying all sorts of Viking artifacts including the wonderful tapestries. The tapestries were fascinating and well worth a visit for them alone. Plus, if your ancestors are from Scandinavia, they've got great displays on peasant life in the late 1800's - what your ancestors left (escaped) to go to America (or the big city).

Great experience and impressive waterfall! The people caring for the spot / waterfall had done a great job with the spot, so the trail is well placed, you can easily understand more about the nature reseve, the waterfall and nature around it (like the fish in the river / water). The waterfall is very impressive and with the great location, easy to navigate tour, I would recommend this to anyone visiting Åre.

We spent four fantastic days skiing on the slopes above Are. There are a good range of slopes for all abilities and some superb blue runs at either end of the resort. Lift queues were minimal and a nice family atmosphere pervades the slopes. Although there are quite a lot of T bar lifts and the signposting sometimes makes it difficult to navigate your way around we didn't allow these negatives to spoil our enjoyment. There are a good number of restaurants/bars to chill and rest your legs. Lift passes and ski hire prices were very reasonable. During our stay (second week of March) we had some bluebird days and perfect snow gave us powder days and fantastic skiing conditions. Our previous skiing had only been in the Alps, but we left feeling you can't beat skiing in Scandinavia and hope to return again next year.
