Lugnet Ski Stadium, Falun
Lugnet
A sports park that has hosted the Nordic Ski World Championships several times. Its iconic ski jumps have lifts to an observation deck overlooking Falun.
Lugnet is a large sports and outdoor park northeast of central Falun. It hosted the Nordic Skiing World Championships in 1954, 1974, 1993 and 2015, and it is a permanent stop on the Cross-Country Skiing World Cup circuit. The most eye-catching feature is its two ski jumps. In summer, you can take a lift to the observation deck at the top of the large hill to see the city of Falun and the Great Copper Mountain below. In winter, many cross-country trails are open free of charge, while in summer the area becomes a network of hiking and mountain-biking trails. It is a good stop on the way to the Falun Copper Mine.
