Värmland is located in the western part of Svealand and borders Västergötland/Dalsland to the south, Østlandet (Norway) to the west and Dalarna, Västmanland and Närke to the east.
Värmland is a very beautiful landscape that offers a very varied biotope. There are many deep forests, lakes and rivers, but first and foremost the nature is very diverse. Here you can find everything from archipelagos, vast forests, endless lakes, foothill terrain, bogs and meadows. The great variation is due to changes in bedrock and soil, climate, humidity and light conditions coupled with human activity. Nature also offers a great diversity of species.
Värmland is often called the land of moose and wolves. The most famous waters are Vänern and Klarälven, while other popular fishing waters include Fryken and Visten. In the gigantic Klarälv system, there is one of Sweden's largest and most unique salmon trout populations.
