Dalarna

Tradition and innovation meet in Dalarna. Forests, hills and water characterize the landscape. They have been the source of the region's sustenance for centuries. Wood, paper and pulp, iron, steel and water power are the basis of Dalarna's economy. Some of the large industries in Dalarna are SSAB, Avesta Sheffield, STORA and ABB. Banverket and Vägverket are the university's neighbors.
Nature and culture have attracted tourists here since before the 1800s. Dalarna is Sweden's biggest tourist region, but many choose to stay and live here.
