Falun
Falun is the capital of Dalarna and grew up around the copper mine that operated for about a thousand years and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The large pit Stora Stöten, the galleries at 67 meters and the origin of the red paint used on Swedish houses are the focus of visits. Dalarnas museum shows the province's culture, and Carl Larsson's house is 13 km away in Sundborn.

Mora
Mora sits on the northwest tip of Lake Siljan, in Dalarna. It’s the hometown of painter Anders Zorn, with a museum and the house where he lived, and the finish of the Vasaloppet, the 90 km ski race on the first Sunday in March. Ten kilometers away, in Nusnäs, family workshops hand-make the Dala horses, and the road around the lake leads to Rättvik, Tällberg and the Vidablick viewpoint.
