I never knew about Rattvik before reading your post but it really looks very peaceful place. I would love to walk down along the 628 meter pier which is longest in Scandinavia. Also Rattvik Kyrka looks very impressive and also with a beautiful backdrop of lake and greenery. Even the waterfall formed by meteoroid strike looks beautiful.

I’d never heard of Rattvik before (but I have only been to Stockholm for a weekend) but it looks lovely. Anywhere that’s good for locals to visit always feels like it would be a great place to add to your itinerary. And I much prefer the imagery that is conjured up by a ‘troll hole’ to a cave! Pier looks like a lovely walk too.

I would love the walk on that pier! How interesting that it’s the longest pier in Scandanavia. I’d also enjoy strolling through the nature reserve to see the waterfall and troll hole. Thanks for sharing Raggvik with us!

Beautiful pictures! Rättvik seems to be a place to unwind for a few days. Especially the lake and the pier look really lovely. I have never seen a church with church stables around – so I would definitely make a detour for that!

No wonder this is a popular holiday destination among the Swedes – it looks so serene and beautiful. Especially Sweden’s unspoiled nature is definitely a tourist magnet. To me, Summers in Sweden are always connected with Astrid Lindgren’s book on Saltkrokan – innocent and fun.

I can see why Rattvik would be a spot that local come for summer vacation. I love that view of the lake and gardens. That fanciful state in the found looks fun. A hotel with a view of the pier sounds perfect.

I went to Sweden on a business trip, and was so surprised with how much I enjoyed this country, and would love to see more of it. That’s an impressive pier, so you can see why Rattvik is such a popular summer destination.

Great blog! I love the heartland of Sweden! Most people have never heard of Rattvik or Leksand and these are some of the most amazing places to visit in Sweden.

In reply to Amy.

Hi Amy! The closest airport is Sälen Airport (also called Scandinavian Mountains Airport) – recently opened – which happens to be in the Dalarna region close to the Norwegian border. This should be a very short driving distance from Rattvik.
