The first thing you notice in Söderhamn is the sea

Everywhere you go in Söderhamn, you will be struck by the proximity of nature. High mountains and great forests offer a wealth of opportunities for hiking, berry picking and mushroom picking. All the large predators roam freely, and for fishing enthusiasts there are watercourses of every kind.

The forests dominated industry in the area, as is evident from the large number of old sawmill communities.

The city of Söderhamn is a blend of the old and the new, with the downtown pedestrian zone as its natural hub. The city is known throughout Sweden for its many parks, which explode in a blaze of colour in spring and summer. A stroll through these green spaces is a memorable experience.
