In our FAQ section, you can find answers to common questions about booking, facilities, pet policies, and much more.
The booking becomes binding once you have received a confirmation of your booking from us. This can happen in various ways, in writing, via email, or through an online booking system.
There are slightly different rules depending on how you have booked your stay. More about our change and cancellation policies can be read here.
The cottage/campsite must be cleaned before departure. The price does not include cleaning, but you can purchase our cleaning service; it costs 590 SEK for Eken, Aspen, Granen & Skogsgläntan 1, 790 SEK for Tallen and Villavagn and Skogsgläntan 2, and 990 SEK for the Beach Cottages (excluding trash and dishes).
We offer an open purchase policy within a 24-hour period, provided that the arrival is more than 7 days away. This means that a booking can be cancelled without restrictions within this timeframe

Both you and your pet are welcome at the campsite if you are staying in a caravan/motorhome or in cottages 1–9, 11 & 12, and cottage 18. Please keep your dog on a leash and walk it outside the campsite. Use dog bags.
We have a charging station with two connections. It is located by the fence behind the villa wagons along the road. To charge, use the Epspot app. It is forbidden to charge your car at the campsite or by the cottage.
Yes, with us you book your specific site via online booking. Therefore, it may be difficult to extend your stay during the peak summer season.
One person in the group must be at least 20 years old to stay with us.
There are parking spaces at each cottage, and if you are staying at a camping site, you can park one car per rented site. If you come with extra cars, we will refer you to the parking at the reception.

Some of the trails are demanding and may be tiring, especially for younger children. However, there are several less demanding options where younger hikers can join and still enjoy an exciting nature experience.
You know your dog best and whether it enjoys and can manage a full day of hiking. Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times during the hike.
There may be some restrictions regarding cabin accommodation at Klarälvens Camping, so please check at the time of booking whether a dog-friendly cabin is available.
This varies by location. In Fänstjärnsskogen, there is a cabin that is open to everyone. At Brattfallet, there is a picnic area with several tables, and along the Halgå Trail there is a wind shelter.
On the trails at Hovfjället, there are often rest areas with tables, and on the Torprundan loop you pass a cottage that is open and also has an outdoor toilet.
At Fämtån, there are tables and a wind shelter below the waterfall at the start of the trail, but not along the trail itself.
The hiking trails vary quite a bit. Several of them are classified as demanding, but with a normal level of fitness and mobility, they are manageable. Most trails follow paths where some sections include rocks and tree roots, and many routes also involve elevation changes.
The easiest trails are in Fänstjärnsskogen and the short walking loop at Brattfallet.
For most packages, you can travel by bus or train from Karlstad to our starting points. This depends on which package you’ve booked and on which day.
For example, if your canoe trip or timber rafting adventure starts on a Saturday or Sunday in Gunnerud, there is no bus service to Gunnerud on weekends.
In that case, we can pick you up at the bus stop in Sjögränd (just south of Gunnerud). You must inform us in advance, and we will do this free of charge, provided you arrive on the bus connection closest to the start time of your booked tour.
There are always mosquitoes. How many depends on how dry, warm, and wet it is or has been. A strong spring flood followed by warm weather usually means more mosquitoes.
However, it is very rare to have mosquitoes out on the river. They mainly appear on land and in the evenings. Mosquito repellent and covering clothing are the best protection.
As far as we know, mosquitoes here do not carry any diseases.
The water can only be drunk if it is boiled. It is perfectly fine to use for cooking, coffee, tea, etc.
On longer tours (3–7 days), we provide fresh water containers that you can fill before setting off.
It is also fine to wash dishes using river or lake water. Please remember to bring environmentally friendly dish soap.
Depending on which package you have booked, there are different starting points, sometimes also referred to as meeting points.
Please note: If you search for Vildmark i Värmland on Google or another search engine, you will be directed to our office in Torsby. No tours start from there.
The travel documents for your specific tour clearly state where your tour begins. This information is usually found at the end of the travel document.

Klarälvens Camping is located directly on the banks of the Klarälven River, perfect for refreshing swims in clear water.
