Partille youth hostel, to the east of lake Kåsjön, offers accommodation all year round and also has a restaurant for visitors.

From here, the trail continues through beautiful forest areas. At lake Maderna the trail divides. Walkers along the North Sea Trail/Bohusleden follow the route going north through easy-to-walk mixed forest.

You will soon reach Råhult, where there is a wind shelter, resting area, parking and waffle café. The trail continues through old natural forest, crosses the E20 and takes you to Jonsered. If possible, take time to visit the Jonsered factories and the Bokedalen nature reserve.

Lake Kåsjön is the largest lake in Partille, and a perfect place to rest and swim. The restaurant is open during summer months. There are also picnic tables for those who have brought their own food.

Just 300 metres from lake Kåsjön is Partille youth hostel, with simple accommodation in beautiful surroundings.

The bird rich lake Maderna is a haven for birdwatchers.

Råhult waffle café is a delightful place to visit in the winter. It is open Saturdays and Sundays during January to March.

Salmon fishing in the river Säveån is well worth a detour. Fish are large and eager to bite. The average weight is just less than five kilos, but in 2005 a fly-fisherman from Jonsered set up a new record when he caught a giant salmon weighing 17.6 kilos!

If you want to challenge the record-holder you can buy a fishing permit at the OK/Q8 service station at Brodalsmotet. Please note that you are only allowed a limited number of fish.

Jonsered village has an interesting cultural history. It looks Scottish, with many red brick houses and buildings. The Scottish industrialist William Gibson built almost the entire industrial community, starting in the early 1840’s.

The Jonsered factories were socially advanced. The employees were looked after literally from the cradle to the grave. Social insurance, widow’s insurance, schooling and free health care were in operation. They had their own midwife and crèche, as well as a home for girls and an old people’s home.
