Skurugata Skurugata has often been called Northern Swedens classical natural landmark. Skurugata is an approximately 800 meter long fault fissuer. It is between 7 and 24 meters wide and you may feel very small looking up at the 56 meter high vertical walls above your head. Skuruhatt Skuruhatt is one of Småland´s highest points (337 meter above the see level) with a marvelous panorama view over the surroundings. Here is also a stone monument of Albert Engström to be found. Albert often played in Skurugata as a kid, and for him, the area was equal to Småland. (ca 55 km) www.eksjo.se |
The Kleva Mine In 1691, a poor parish clerk from Alseda found a lump of ore on the Kleva mountain. This, which was at first believed to be gold, turned out to be copper ore, and, together with nickel, was then mined here. Follow the winding passages deep down in the mountain to the Great Mine Lake, shimmering in green, and find yourself transported to past centuries. Experience the severe conditions of the miners, feel the bone-chilling cold, and see the glimmering walls in the faint light that trickles down the mineshaft. (ca 30 km) www.klevagruva.se |
