Experience the wilderness of Glaskogen on a canoe hike. You can choose between shorter or longer tours - maybe with an overnight stay in a tent, shelter or cabin along your way. You need the visitor card to use the facilities in the Glaskogen. At the Information centre in Lenungshammar you can rent a canoe or kayak and equipment. Also the visitor card and a map are available here. More information: https://glaskogen.se/en/activities/canoe.html
In summer 2023 the overnight cabin in Dammarna is closed for overnight stay. It is instead used as a centre for canoe rental and information.
