Ottsjö

Ottsjö might be one of the most beautiful villages in the Swedish mountains. The village is located on the northern side of the lake, giving a spectacular view of Ottsjö mountain and the best possible use of the sunlight. When people visit they always fall in love with the view.

Ottsjö is located in between Åre and Vålådalen, and is a good place to stay when visiting the mountains in both winter and summer. The hiking trails in the area ranges from family-friendly half- and full-day hikes, to longer hiking ranges such as the popular Jämtlandstriangeln, a three-day hike. During the winter the dog sledding and skiing is among the best in Sweden, with several slopes and resorts nearby. Åre is the most famous, but the smaller spots such as Trillevallen, Edsåsdalen and the hidden and hard to reach Vita Renen are well worth a visit.
