Hotels in Gavleborg, Sweden

Gävleborg is a region in east-central Sweden, stretching from the Gulf of Bothnia inland through dense forests. Its climate shifts from cold winters (averaging 20°F / -7°C in January) perfect for ice fishing on the frozen lakes, to mild summers (68°F / 20°C) ideal for hiking in the Färnebofjärden National Park. The region is famous for the giant straw Gävle Goat, built each December, and for its salmon fishing in the Dalälven River-try it in late summer when the runs peak.
