Harjedalens kommun

Härjedalens kommun has served as a frontier district within Sweden since the 17th century. In the country’s mountainous interior, it extends across broad forests, moorland and high fells close to the Norwegian border. The Ljusnan River runs through Sveg, the municipality’s main settlement, and continues south through central Sweden. Sonfjället National Park protects a distinctive mountain massif and surrounding woodland, while reindeer husbandry reflects the enduring presence of Sámi culture in the area. Long distances, winter conditions and an outdoor-oriented way of life give Härjedalen a markedly different character from Sweden’s coastal regions.
