Pre-study Development of Destination Smitingen

The areas around Härnösand and the High Coast today offer visitor reasons such as a unique world heritage and unique taste experiences, but the tourism industry in the municipality develops less than average. Investments in attractions, experience facilities and accommodation in the county are very important for the competitiveness of the industry. Together with the High Coast Destination Development, the County Administrative Board and other actors, Härnösand Municipality will create the conditions for responsible and sustainable development of destination Smitingen. The feasibility study will help to increase the region’s attractiveness, create new action and preserve the natural force that makes the place unique. Interest in nature tourism is increasing and the ongoing pandemic has given the svemester trend new fuel. Härnösand municipality wants to create the best opportunities to create sustainable nature tourism in the area of Smitingen. Establishment of a year-round campsite will create more jobs and more visitors to Härnösand and the High Coast. Here is a great opportunity to develop a more long-term sustainable nutrition – both for climate and entrepreneurs.
