Very nicely located shelter. Unfortunately a bit dirty due to inconsiderate users. We had to clean up first and take most of the leftovers with us the next day.

This is beautiful lake and a very peaceful spot. Stora Mettjärnen forms part of the drainage basin of the Gota River. It is surrounded by forest and by a number of other smaller lakes as well.

A good point overlooking the dark waters of Svartvattnet. From here, you get a beautiful panorama of the lake surrounded by forest. A peaceful spot to pause and take in the scenery before heading back down to the trail.

This shelter is ideal for an accommodation stopover. You can spend the night here during a multi-day hike.
