The house is on the Galå Fjällgård in the midst of pristine nature, at the foot of Oviksfjäll, in the northern Swedish province of Jämtland.

The unique location by the historical 'Fäbodvägen' offers a range of activities in beautiful surroundings. You can set out from the house in summer on short or extended walks through the landscape, consisting of old forests, high moors and the Fjäll. There is a local hiking brochure in the holiday hut, along with an information folder with suggestions for trips and activities. The adjacent Börtnan fishing area is known for its lakes and rivers, where you can fish for trout and char. Fishing permits can be purchased locally. In winter the owners maintain their own cross-country skiing trail for guests. There are also signposted trails for snow shoe hiking. Cross-country skiing and snow shoe equipment is available for hire at the farm. With its location at the foot of Oviksfjäll in the Swedish region of Jämtland, the house is in the area of reindeer pastures belonging to the Sami village of Tossåsen.
