Fegen/ Backa Loge

The hostel's building at Fegen Backa Loge dates back to the 1700s and is located in Fegens conservation area with wonderful views of Lake Fegen. Just screeching from the jetty and the bird loon eco breaks the silence.

Backa Loge is situated in the middle of Fegens beautiful conservation area (future nature reserve). The farm dates back to the 1600s. In 2005 the manor house was tastefully renovated and decorated for hostel purposes. But you can still sense of history with all surviving fireplaces, doors and old floorboards.

From Backa Loge you can Look out over meadows, beach and lake Fegen with its rich fish and birdlife. The osprey nest can be seen from the café terrace, while enjoying coffee and waffle. Or why not pull up the perch from the jetty or boat? Broil it in the grill room, while singular loon cry sounds of the lake.

In these regions continued border conflicts between Sweden and Denmark, and nearby is a place called "war cavity." Here you can be guided on "Backa Loge, a journey from
Ice Age to the present". The border fighting resulted to no border between Sweden and Denmark, rather between Västergötland, Halland and Småland, a mile from Backa Loge.

After all the impressions of nature and culture, you can then relax in the hostel's cozy
environment and sleep soundly in our comfortable beds.
