Sightseeing

Within and around Dorotea are various different things to see. From viewpoints to museums and from waterfalls to train rides. Dorotea has more to offer than you think. Check out the map and look for the locations marked with a Binocular.

Chainsaw carving

In the summer, our parking lot becomes the workspace of artist Kenneth Nielsen, who uses his chainsaw to carve wood into art. The large Lapland sign placed along the E45 was also made by him. We put his chainsaw carvings on display at our campground, where they are also for sale. You can make an order for any special requests you might have. It is also worth just paying Kenneth a visit. His backyard is strewn with many beautiful sculptures that he’s made with just his chainsaw and nothing else.

From his backyard you can walk the “Björn Stigen”, along which you’ll be looking for all the hidden sculptures. In his sculptures, Kenneth Nielsen captures Lapland’s diverse wildlife, as well as gnomes in all manner of sizes and shapes. Check out his website to get an impression of his work.
