A four bedroom house in Falun, Dalarna suitable for families with children

Our house is located in Falun, Dalarna, 2 km from the city centre. The house is close to Lugnet Arena, which is a sports arena with for instance hiking trails, mountainbiking trails, tracks for roller skiis and a newly built baths with relax. The nature is just around the corner and it's about 1 km to supermarkets. The block where the house is located is calm and almost no traffic outside the house because it's located on a blind alley. 5 minute walk from the house to get to Lugnets Nature Reserve area (https://www.naturkartan.se/en/dalarnas-lan/lugnet-naturreservat). Falun also offer several nice lakes for swimming within 5-15 minutes by car from the house.

The yard of the house is located in the southwest direction with great evening sun on the sun deck where you can relax and bbq. The house has 4 bedrooms; one master bedroom with a king size bed, one guestroom with a queen size bed and two rooms for kids with 90 cm wide beds. Fully equipped kitchen and dining room with seating for up to 6-8 persons. The house is on a total of 144 square meters and is suitable for a family with kids. Toys, sandbox and trampoline is avaliable for the kids to use. Private sauna on the yard and a bath tub in the basement.

The World Heritage Site of Falun is more than just the mine itself – it also includes the whole of the surrounding countryside, the town with its historic red-painted blocks and the rural mining districts. There’s plenty for all the family to discover here. The capital of Dalarna has a lively town centre with many shops, as well as cosy cafés and restaurants.

The World Heritage Site of Falun is more than just the mine itself – it also includes the whole of the surrounding countryside, the town with its historic red-painted blocks and the rural mining districts. There’s plenty for all the family to discover here. The capital of Dalarna has a lively town centre with many shops, as well as cosy cafés and restaurants.

Carl Larsson’s colourful home in Sundborn is a popular tourist destination and a source of great inspiration. There are daily tours, and visitors can find out more about the world-famous artist and his artist wife Karin Larsson, their work, their love for each other and their busy lives. The Carl Larsson Homestead also has a shop selling items directly inspired by the artists’ home. Dalarna Museum in the centre of Falun showcases the best of Dalarna in the form of traditional Dalecarlian painting, folk costumes, collections of Dala horses and much more.

It is often said that Lake Runn, between Falun and Borlänge, has as many islands as there are days of the year. Whether or not this is true, it’s certainly an excellent lake for learning to sail or paddle a kayak. There are plenty of opportunities for boating and swimming, but Lake Runn isn’t just a place to come to in the summer. Long distance cross-country skiing and skating tracks are cleared in the winter, and international skating competitions are held on the ice of the lake each year.

Falun is a year-round sporting destination, and you can hike, cycle or ski through the richly varied scenery. The Lugnet Arena is always open for visitors. The Ski museum at the top of the ski jumping tracks offers ski history with a unique presentation of Falun, Sweden's ski World Cup history and incomparable views.
