The southern entrance is without a doubt the most used. From here it is close to Skuleskogen's biggest attraction, Slåttdalsskrevan.Once at the crevice, you can take a coffee break or a dip by the idyllic Tärnättvattnen or hike up to Slåttdalsberget for one of the High Coast's most beautiful views.

Experience prison conditions of the past in two unique prison buildings. Follow history from the old castle jail with its underground dungeons, dating back to the mid-1600s, to one of Sweden’s first penitentiaries, dating from 1847. You will witness the Swedish prison system, which developed from a period of public enforced shame and corporal punishment to a time when prisoners were isolated from society in what we now call solitary confinement. A visit to the Prison Museum leaves no one unaffected. When you visit the museum, borrow an audioguide in english or german for free!

This fortress is a well preserved military installation that was built by the Swedes during the Cold War era and only closed in the early 1990s. Above ground, there are lots of pieces of military weaponry - guns, tanks, etc, as well as a restaurant that is open at lunchtime. Below ground, a guided tour takes you through what could be a functioning city today, complete with a small hospital, shop, sleeping quarters, office areas, dining room and intelligence offices. It's a really cool place to visit and reminds us about the seriousness of the Cold War era and what it meant for Sweden. It's a bit out of the way, being in northern Sweden, but if you happen to be around the Härnsand area, worth a visit.

Welcome to North Mountain, a green oasis in Sundsvall and one of the region's most visited destinations.The combination of nature, culture, history, cafés, shops, playgrounds, barbecue areas and events attracts young and old, all year round. There is something for all ages and tastes.

Nice place for a walk, where you also can learn about history, see some animals (pigs, hens, sheeps) or just follow one of the paths in the forest (not for trolleys!) Wonderful view from the observation tower over Sundsvall city and the bay. There are places for a picknick (benches in the forest and grass for a picknick filt) and playground for kids.

Wow, such a great experience! We ended up here by accident, but it was a happy accident. They have designed the park really well, you walk along a wooden path through the animals natural habitat. All Nordic, local animals combining both their beauty and preserving an understanding of animals from and living in the region. They have small cottages along the way where you can start a fire (they leave wood for you) and you can bring food and / or grill hot dogs. Such a nice add! Loved it and would highly recommend it to couple and / or families visiting the area.

Well! What a beautiful spot this is for hiking. Lakes, crevices, bathing spots, amazing views and well organised spots for lighting fires and shacks for overnighting. I can understand why it is so popular. We entered at the north entrance and hiked to the Tärnättholmarna the up to Tärnättsvatten and the high coast trail back to the northern entry. We took it easy and this hike is about 3-4 hours walking but stopping and so it took approximately 6 hours.

We visited this park and zoo while staying in Sweden with family. There is parking a short walk away and reasonable charge for a whole day. Seemed expensive to get into the park as the swimming area wasn't open for the season but there was no discount which was disappointing. However the park in well laid out and there is plenty to see. Toilets throughout the park as well as food and drink outlets. We would recommend taking a picnic as prices were high as you would expect inside a park. Rides were extra unless you purchased a wrist band and no queues when we visited. Great place for a day out in good weather.
