sights and activities
A wilderness "kitchen" with a stone oven, in the middle of the forest outside Munkfors.
In the forest by lake Vågsjön, a bit into the Vågsjörundan trail, you will find Bord för alla. A direct translation of Bord för alla is Table for everyone.
Bord för alla offers you, as the chef or accompanying party, an Italian stone oven and two large bench tables. It's available for you if you want to enjoy a meal outside in nature, with a view of Lake Vågsjön.
The Vågsjörundan trail begins with an accessible section leading to the stone oven and rest area. An accessible dry toilet is also available at the car park.
Start by removing the protective cover on the oven (remember to always put it back when you are done and leave the place).
Brush out any charred residue. Feel free to use the stainless steel bucket.
Bring and ONLY use dry hardwood in the oven!
Do NOT use liquid fuel (lighter fluid, gasoline, kerosene or similar liquids) to start or maintain a fire.
DO NOT use coal, pressure impregnated wood, chipped wood products, resinous trees such as pine, wood laminate and more.
DO NOT use products not listed for use in this oven.
NOTE! Never use water to lower the temperature inside the oven, or to extinguish the fire.
Start by making a fire in the middle.
When you approach the desired temperature, slide the fire to the right side, brush off the surface and begin cooking on it.
Note! Remember to only use dry hardwood. You need to bring your own wood if you plan to use the oven.
When you're done, please clean up and take all the trash back with you!
A stone's throw from the oven, there is also a barbecue area, bathing area and a sauna (pre-booking of the sauna is required).
You will also find the starting points of two hiking trails here, Vågsjörundan and Säterrundan.
If you have a fishing license for Klarälven FVOF within Munkfors municipality, you may also fish in Vågsjön.
Bord för alla is an installation/restaurant developed by the creators behind 2020 year's international success "Bord för en" (Table for one). "Bord för en" was a dining experience in privacy, a chair and a table in the middle of a summer meadow in Ransäter. The food was served through a basket that was hoisted down via a rope, directly from the kitchen in the house next door. It was noticed by media around the world as the only true pandemic-safe restaurant.
