Moderate Hiking Trails in Dalarna County

71 routes in Dalarna County qualify, ranked below by how much walkers rate them. They average 13.5 km and 39 m (128 ft) of ascent, with the longest running to 404 km.

That is 65 percent of the 110 routes we map in Dalarna County. They are shorter than the local average, 13.5 km against 34.4 km, which is what makes this a practical shortlist for a half day. They also climb less than the area average, 39 m (128 ft) against 407 m (1,335 ft), so they suit a recovery day or a group with mixed fitness.

Moderate routes are the sweet spot for most regular walkers: enough climbing to feel like a proper day out, never enough to turn into an ordeal. These lean toward the demanding end, so plan for a full day and check the forecast before you commit.
