Tidernas Väg - main roads 272 and 83
Give yourself a little more time for your journey, forget the E4 motorway, lift your foot from the accelerator and take it easy. Take “Tidernas Väg." It may be a little longer, a little slower - but well worth it! The route goes between Uppsala in the south up to Ånge in the north.
