The expression easy-to-walk can be used for the first time since the first stage of the Bohusleden Trail in the south, by the Halland border. The geological nature reserve Harska is the starting point of Stage 17 of the North Sea Trail/Bohusleden.

If you have been walking for several days, you may even have spent the night in the wind shelter by the idyllic Harskabukten bay and discovered the fine spring on the slope towards lake Kärnsjön.

The trail goes past a number of stone circles and grave-fields, as well as idyllic and living farms.

Harska is a majestic gravel ridge that was created when the inland ice retreated. This area is a geological reserve.

A short detour to the east on level with lake Heevattnet is recommended. You will find a lookout with wide, beautiful views over lake Kärnsjön.

Svarteborg church is enthroned on top of the majestic inland ice deposit. The church dates back to the 12th century, but was reconstructed in the 18th century.
