Trail 07 - Junker Jägarerundan

Distance: 2.8 km

Squire Hunter’s trail is fairly short, twice the length of Tärnekullerundan, and does not have the same variety of terrain to make it as interesting, but it does have two particular things to make it worth while. Firstly it is a good bridge onto trail 9, rather than using the purple trail, and secondly, there is the famous Boulder.

Junker Jägare’s Boulder

Near the trail's northernmost point is Junker Jägeres Boulder, a massive ice age boulder that stands alone and proud in the forest. The story goes that Squire Hunter lost his beloved maiden at this boulder, though older residents of the area remark this supposedly historic story seem to have its roots in Tiveden’s rise as a tourist destination rather than in any local myths. Regardless, it is a sight worth seeing, standing tall and proud in the forest.
