Sports and health

Sports are important to many people in Värmland. They enjoy watching, reading about it or taking part themselves. 

We love to support our teams and sportsmen and women, and they don't make a habit of letting us down!

New associations are started by people who want to get involved in new sports. Climbers start climbing clubs. Golfers build golf courses. And in the background, municipalities help out with premises, land and funding for activities.

Gyms, training centres and health studios are run by both the municipality and private business owners in most places in Värmland. Some places offer childcare services, for example, or play and motion activities while parents exercise.

We love spending time in the countryside. There are more than 100 nature reserves here, more than 10 000 lakes and vast amounts of forest to ramble through.
