Billingen Recreation Centre

Billingen’s recreation centre is one of Västergötland's most complete sports and recreation areas and also an official Vasaloppcenter for cycling, running, and skiing. During the winter, you can take a ski trip on one of the 10-kilometre-long artificial snow trails found here, as well as go sledding and ice skating. During the summer, you can swim in the outdoor pool or take a trip in the MTB tracks. If you're looking for nature experiences you can hike on any of the hiking trails that pass through the area. You'll be guaranteed great nature experiences as you hike the 65 km-long Billinge trail that goes around the whole mountain. All this you will find just minutes by car from central Skövde, and in the area, you'll also find hotels, hostels, and holiday cottages.

Embark on an adventure at the Skogsmulle Kingdom on Billingen, a fascinating destination for children and adults alike. Stroll along the path encircling Lake Åsbotorpsjön and peer into the homes of beloved characters like Skogsmulle, Fjällfina, Nova, and Laxe. Delve into Skogsmulle's den to unravel the mysteries of the forest, explore Fjällfina's nature play area, and discover the wonders inside her den. Uncover tales at the Billinge Troll's cave, gaze at the stars in Nova's spaceship, and observe lake life through the floor windows at Laxe's beaver hide. Don't forget to download the app 'Skogsmulleriket' where you can scan symbols along the trail and listen to the figures.

Silverfallet

At the nature reserve Silverfallet-Karlsfors, an impressive waterfall pours down over the rocks. The falls are most popular in the spring when the water level is at its highest. The area is rich in rare flora and perfect for a Sunday outing. You can also see remains from the biggest alum operation in Skaraborg, which was abandoned in 1856.
