Only fairly stupid people go to Mora by plane. I was one of them. I booked on SAS, checked in on Skyways, had a boarding pass on Fly Nordic and actually flew on NextJet, which was a propellar plane. No big deal, and it was a good journey. And a good plane. it was a Beechcraft 1900D.
There was no announcing that we had landed at Mora, and not having been informed that the plane continued to Sveg after a short stop I barely managed to get off by asking fellow passengers.
Self service on this little plane... "smörgås" sandwiches, tea and coffee was stacked at the front by the pilot.
40 minutes flight from Stockholm Arlanda, landed in Mora Siljan Airport which is a few km from Mora town centre, perhaps 6 - 7 km. Maybe book a taxi to come and meet you if you have no other arrangement. I arrived by last flight in darkness and there were nobody at the airport. Departure was equally funny, no security check whatosever, ticketing by name and picture ID. On my early morning return to Stockholm there were three passengers.

The big craze is the Dalarne Horse which is made around Siljan lake and the town of Mora in particular. The horse is made out of wood - the Dalecarlian Horse - and a fairly simple affair, some with more elaborate rose painting, nearly all brightly painted. It is known from the middle ages or so.
