Some of the best canoeing waters you will ever find are right here in western Härjedalen. The river Ljusnan near Funäsdalen is an excellent choice, as is Lake Rogen right on the border of the province of Dalarna and Norway. Lake Rogen is considered one of the best lakes for canoeing because of the untouched and tranquil nature, but getting there is a bit of a challenge. When driving south from Funäsdalen, you’ll soon get to the village of Tännäs; from there, follow the signs toward Käringsjön (south). From Käringsjön, the terrain is too barren for cars so you’ll need to hike the last stretch with the canoe.
If you plan to stay out there for a while and want the ultimate experience, it’s definitely worth it. If a daytrip is all you have in mind then Ljusnan is probably a better option for you. The river is easily accessible from Funäsdalen. Good starting points are Bruksvallarna and Flon north of Funäsdalen toward Ramundberget.
