Sightseeing
In Håverud there are many things to do and see and is a must for every Dalsland visitor... Here is a tourist office, a glass blower, restaurant and smokery, canal boats, shops, cafe, canoe rentals and more. In Håverud you will also find Dalsland's big attraction the Aqueduct. It was an ingenious solution to a major problem. It did not seem possible to build the canal and the locks here because of the soft rock and the deep canyon like valley where the river rushed. The person responsible for the project, Nils Ericson, advocated an aqueduct would be built over the most difficult part and the top of the canal would be put on a shelf on the rocks. This was done, and now also railway and road br

A tour on the Dalsland canal takes you to the heart of the most lake-rich landscape in Sweden. The canal has over the years transformed from a transport route to a much visited tourist attraction. There is something magical about the Dalsland canal and it is not only the surrounding stunningly beautiful nature that will enthrall you. The most astonishing thing is that although it takes you between Vänern and the mysterious Lake Stora Lee in northern Dalsland the canal itself is only a few kilometers long. The secret lies in Dalsland’s unusual topography. The last ice age created many long deep rift lakes and made Dalsland Sweden’s most lake-rich landscape.

Halmens Hus, the house of Straw, is a museum and a handicraft shop in Bengtsfors. The museum is located on the top of a mountain with a fantastic view. This is where you can see the permanent exhibition on the history of straw and how it has been used by different cultures and why straw has been so important for Dalsland. In the late 1800’s more than 100 000 straw hats a year were exported throughout Europe and the USA. The hats produced in the areas around Bengtsfors supported many families. Even today we have skilled craftsmen in our region. Every year the museum celebrates Halmens dag, Straw Day, on the first Sunday in August. On this day our craftsmen demonstrate working with straw.

Parks & Nature
DALSLANDS MOOSE RANCH - Högankas 2, Ed
In the 10 hectares large enclosure are now 8 tame moose in natural forest areas that offer plenty of cover, food and water. Here the moose live as if they were in the wild and they can withdraw and roam freely. However several times a day they curiously come to the feeding station at the park’s entrance because it’s feeding time. It is just then that you as a visitor have the chance to get really, really close to these mighty animals. Meet the bull Älgert and his family and hear Thomas and Conny share their elk adventures…
