Klippan Travel Guide

 Sjalen Says:  As you come down to the canyon and begin your walk back on a "plank path" so common in Swedish national parks, you walk along the little stream. Quite dramatic at times and full of rare plants, frogs and things. There is also Rårödpågens well, a well supposedly sprung up...
