Wolf Island

Out here you have the mainland far behind you, only open sea in front of you.

You are in a remarkably beautiful in-between country with picturesque fishing villages, untouched nature and you are fascinated by steep cliffs that plunge straight into the sea.

Ulvön is our archipelago's largest tourist destination with great cultural values thanks to well-preserved boathouses, residential buildings and gist embankments.

It was once Norrland's largest fishing village and is sometimes referred to as the pearl of the Bothnian Sea or Norrland's Sandhamn.

Here you can stroll along the harbor street and the many iconic red fishing huts.

Here is Ulvö chapel, one of the Norrland coast's oldest from 1622, with fine wall and ceiling paintings.

A walk up to Lotsberget, with a panoramic view of Ulvöhamn and the archipelago, can be highly recommended.

For those interested in culture, a visit to the Ulvö Museum is a perfect opportunity to learn more about the cultural history of fishing, acid drifting and mining.

For the children, there are many activities at Ulvö Hotell, such as a heated pool, mini golf, beach volleyball court, playgrounds and barbecue areas.

A tip is to also take a day trip to northern Ulvön, Sandvikens Fiskeläge, Fjären or Norrsand beach.
