Mora lies at the heart of Dalarna, on the shores of Lake Siljan and along the Österdalälven river. It’s world-famous as the finish line of the Vasaloppet, and in summer runners can follow parts of the same historic trail. From lakeside paths to forest tracks, the area offers varied terrain and the unique atmosphere of Sweden’s most iconic endurance event.

There are seats and a toilet, but the water was turned off due to bacterial contamination (this probably happens more often here, so it is better to fill up at the gas station below).

A perfect shelter for an overnight stay or to shelter from the weather, but be mindful that it doesn't have a water supply.

An oldies fan has recreated an old gas station and a western saloon here. With many curious antiques. Worth seeing!

The S/S Laxen is a Swedish steamboat located at the Siljansfors Forest Museum in Mora. The ship Laxen was built in 1899 at Gefle Varv for Nedre Dalelfven Fleet Association. She was used to collecting wood (wood hunting) in Hedesundafjärden. For this purpose, she was equipped with a steam-powered capstan winch with around 2,000 meters of wire. The S/S Laxen had two sister ships the S/S Östa 1898 and S/S Bäsingen 1905.

When we visited in August 2023, the lake was flooded and access to the lake promenade was restricted. Nevertheless, there was a lot to see here (old steamboats, fountains, old steam locomotives, giant Dala horses, etc.).

Today's stone church in the late Gustavian style was built in 1780 - 1794 about a hundred meters north-west of the former chapel. The cornerstone was laid in 1771-1773, but work was stopped and only resumed in 1780. The church was commissioned in 1789 and completed in 1794, when it was also consecrated. The church building consists of a rectangular nave with a straight choir in the east. East of the sanctuary is a three-sided sacristy the width of the nave. To the west is a square steeple with an octagonal top and onion-shaped roof. The main entrance is on the ground floor of the tower. Another entrance is in the middle of the south side of the nave. The nave has a mansard roof that is hipped to the east over the sacristy. The interior ceiling of the church has a wooden barrel vault, which was decoratively renewed during a restoration in the 1950s.
