Stöten Camping

Scenic campsite by the Görälven river.

Stöten camping is a cosy, family campsite on the outskirts of Sälen. The campsite is open all year round and has seasonal pitches, cabins and glamping tents. The site is a real mecca for mountain bikers and fly fishermen. If you're not a fly fisherman yet, they hold courses in the art. Otherwise, you can also just watch this almost dance-like activity from the shore or from a canoe that you can hire on site.

The campsite has all facilities such as a toilet, shower and kitchen. There is also a washing machine that can be booked. Everything was fresh, tidy and in order. You need a tenner to shower but if you don't have cash with you, you can change in the shop which is open all day. In the shop you can buy some hiking gear as well as snacks and simple food. The only thing we really missed was grey water drainage.

We went here to hike and unfortunately there are not very many trails that start from the campsite, but instead you have to take a car to find the good trails. However, you can book a tour where you are driven out to a lake called Närsjön, from where you then hike just under two miles over the mountain back to the campsite, a very beautiful trip and not very strenuous.
