In this beautiful landscape with small lakes, flowing fields of gold, pasture land and hardwood forests you can drive around, hike, or rent a bike and experience the six nature reserves. You can also visit artists and craftsmen along the way, or why not stay overnight at one of the cosy accommodations in the area? Below you'll find a few tips on what to see and do: - The Silver Falls (Silverfallet) The waterfall of Silverfallet is situated in the middle of the area. It is most popular during the spring but is beautiful all year round with unique fauna, nice walking tracks, and picnic spots. - Öglunda Caves and Jättadalen Carved beneath colossal fallen stone blocks, the Öglunda caves showcase captivating formations, including free-standing pillars of dolerite. These unique hollows, caves, and pillars are a distinctive feature adorning the dolerite slopes throughout Billingen. Jättadalen, a gorge sculpted by a meandering stream, is embraced by steep mountain walls. Stand atop the precipitous cliffs of Jättadalen, and you'll be treated to a breathtaking panorama of Vallebygden, stretching all the way to the majestic Kinnekulle. - Hiking in Valle In the area, there are a lot of walking tracks that take you around and in between the many small lakes. The map is available at the Skövde Tourist office.
