Sonfjället National Park was founded in 1909 and was one of the first national parks, both in Sweden and in Europe. Sonfjället National Park represents one of the finest areas of Swedish natural beauty. Even though this year, 2009, marks one hundred years since the national park was created, the purpose behind the national park is more relevant than ever. Sonfjället was chosen because its “natural state” was deemed to be particularly suitable for studying the effects of climate change on the tree line.
In many ways, Sonfjället is a unique and diverse area. It is an aesthetically appealing mountain that has a great influence on the surrounding landscape. Whilst we want to use words and pictures to demonstrate how fantastic Sonfjället and the national park are, we also want to convey a sense of the powerful attraction that Sonfjället always seems to have exerted on the people close to it. Naturally, it’s just not possible to describe everything – some things simply have to be experienced for themselves.
Welcome to this book about Sonfjället – the heart of Härjedalen.
