There is hardly a better place for wild camping - on the shores of Övre Fosksjö at the foot of Storvätteshågna you can endure. The best places to set up the tent are on the east side of the lake and on the hill northwest of the bridge. The lake is refreshingly cool and the water of the highest quality. Pollution nil. Up here, the world is still alright!
