    Hiking

    Valekullen and Ofredsboa are located in the middle of the forest and can be reached via this trail. Ofredsboa is a cave under a rocky outcrop. Women and children fled here during the war between Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. From the cave, the trail leads up a wooden staircase and a steep climb to Valekullen Mountain. Signal fires were once lit here due to its highly visible location (four lakes and half of Blomskog).
