Feeding smelly goats

This is supposedly Jämtland's biggest tourist attraction for some bizarre reason. It's perfectly OK but how it can be the biggest here amongst the fells beats me completely. As a zoo, it is average with a small savannah, lions, tigers, monkeys and some others and it also has a free small circus as well as as a childrens fairground run by a crew of more or less enthusiastic Poles. If your children wants happiness and you want to study Swedish and Norwegian families in action, try it. Personally, I would go somewhere else but my daughter of course loved the place which is why we went in the first place. Sweden has better zoos than this...

Unique Suggestions: Let your child go on all the rides she wants - especially the bouncy castle for some real entertainment for you :-))). DO see the tiny, tiny monkeys in the tropicarium. Talk to the arctic wolf who is very playful.

Fun Alternatives: Get up Frösö Viewing tower and admire the views across to Norway on a clear day. If you have small children, take them to one of the two good swimming pools in town or play crazy golf in the park by the lake.
