How does one best collect and present all those special little sights, the cultural and historical places, the main attractions, the forgotten ruins, everyone who looks after our visitors and the non-profit organizations who work to preserve their local area in Bergslagen?

This was the question we asked ourselves, and the answer was to do it through a route! That is how “Järnrutten” (The Iron Route) was born. And here it is.

We, who have collaborated on this project, are:
Järnriket Gästrikland www.jarnriket.com
Ekomuseum Bergslagen www.ekomuseum.se
Husbyringen www.husbyringen.se

We tried out The Iron Route during the summer of 2009 4000 unique visitors found us. Now the journey continues. A development of the site is planned with support from Bergslagssatsningen, but will not be visable until 2011. Until then we're gaining experience and our ambition is to make the Iron Route an even better tool. We appreciate your views to the following e-mail addresses:
