This past weekend, we headed inland to check out the largest lake in Sweden, Vänern. Not only is Vänern the biggest lake in Sweden, but it also is the third-largest lake in Europe. In the town of Vänersborg, we walked along the shore of the lake. There was a small rocky island just offshore that could be accessed by a foot bridge. Beyond TJ is the lake. With the wind and the waves, it could easily be mistaken for the ocean. Vast is an understatement.
On Sunday, our destination was Särö Västerskog, a nature reserve, near the towns of Särö and Släp. Set in an affluent community of large houses, golf courses, and tennis courts, this peaceful wooded headland has a couple of small beaches nestled along its rocky shoreline. We were able to walk out on a very short breakwater to this rock outcropping. In the photo below, looking out to sea are islands of the archipelago. Zoey [and Lily] got to see and explore the water. Happy, tired dogs when we got them home.
