Fall bucket list
Yep! Here are 20 must-do experiences to check off your fall bucket list in Åre. Can’t fit them all into one trip? No worries—that’s the perfect excuse to come back.
→ Breathe in autumn. Let your eyes wander across the colorful mountain landscape, enjoy the silence, and fill your lungs with crisp, fresh air. Fall in the mountains is pure magic.
→ Sip your morning coffee on top of Totthummeln as the morning mist lifts over the valley.
→ Ride one of Björnen’s flowing cross-country trails.
→ Visit Åre Chocolate Factory for generous tastings and pick up your favorites to take home.
→ Go hiking. Fall is arguably the most beautiful season for hiking, so pack a picnic, choose a trail, and head into the mountains.
→ Enjoy award-winning coffee at Åre Coffee Roastery overlooking Åre Square.
→ Snap a selfie with the iconic ÅRE letters on Mörvikshummeln.
