surrounding area: Näsåker is located near one of Sweden’s biggest rivers, the Ångermanälv. In Näsåker you will find one of the largest collections of petroglyphs in Europe called Nämforsen. For 6 000 years people have been gathering at Nämforsen to fish, hunt and party! Since 1994 thousands of people from all over Europe come to enjoy the music, dance and camaraderie of the Urkult Music and Culture Festival early August. This is just one of the many activities available for tourists and guests. 

In Näsåker and the surrounding villages it is easy to find a place to stay. There is a wide range of alternatives: hotels, camp sites, housekeeping cottages, private accommodations and “staying on a farm”. And if you are hungry, you can choose between restaurants, pizzerias and hot dog stands. In Näsåker there are 2 food stores, a petrol station, bank, a health center, bathhouse and cinema. There are also several “health workers” who offer a wide range of alternative health care.
