From Summerland in Leksand...
We took a little trip to Leksand for a couple of days and say what you want about their summer land but if you wanted, it could be a real boot-camp. Puhh ... totally wasted!
After three days it felt like we still had things left to do. It was a GREAT place! Most of the activities were just "active" entities. One would climb, jump, balance, swim, or engage in some other fatigue-inducing endeavor. I can really recommend Summerland in Leksand to all parents who are interested in letting their children move during the holidays.
Some negative aspects; It was completely overrun with people. Guests, I have to presume. A campsite with space for caravans, camper vans and tents was adjacent to the park. This area was HUGE. In addition, there were cabins of different standards for rent. In the camping area there was also another pool area with a slightly smaller water slide. Restaurant, beach, miniature golf, etc. were also found within the campground's enclosure. Nothing about this is problematic, but the fact that there was a lot of Norwegians was a problem because they bought everything in the grocery stores down in the town of Leksand. I went by Coop and Hemköp and I've rarely seen such empty gaping store shelves. It was post-apocalyptic.
In addition, everything was obviously overpriced inside the Summerland. From the food to the parking tickets and a cup of coffee but we managed to pack lunch in our cabin and brought it in to the park. There were good possibilities for people with a picnic addiction.
Overall, we were all very satisfied and highly recommend Leksand's Summerland.
When in Rome, it is wise to do as the Romans do;
but it's foolish to do it with conviction.
May the Fors be with you!
Then it was off to Mellanfjard and Trolska Skogen. Despite some bad weather, it was extraordinary, as usual. Very good acting and an exciting story that the kids really appreciated.
During our stay in Mellanfjärden we spent the night in the formidable Hotell Mellanfjärden. They have an excellent breakfast buffet which is consumed on a pier overlooking the bay. Wonderful!
