Until lunch time I walked along the paved road with little traffic to Rötviken. There I turned off into Ansätt Valley. Along the road there are several small waterfalls. Finally I entered the nature reserve Ansätten. The trail is well marked but again and again very wet. As I had good boots I was able to hike the trail. One rather deep creek had to be crossed. In the past there had been several bridges but only some remnants where still visible. Below Mountain Ansätten I came by a shelter. Here I mat two Swedes who spent every year one week. They had repaired this hut which has several bunks and a stove. During the week they also collect many mushrooms.

 

The further I came along the trail to Jensmäsholmen the better it became. There I could choose between an unmarked "trail" directly to Olden or a longer road walk. I decided to take the road. Passing by Olden I continued the paved road to Kallsedet. I staid for a night at Kallsedet Fjällcenter. The center had been bought recently by a Dutch family. I was invited to join them for dinner. Once again many thanks!

Wet trail in Ansättens Nature Reserve

Once upon a time there was a bridge across this creek in Ansättens Nature Reserve

Luckily the trail passes by and not across this moore
