Until about 100 years ago, Björknäs, with its beautiful position by Lake Revsundssjön, was the site of a tenement soldiers smallholding. This was then turned into accommodation for the manager of the important local timber industry- logs were floated from here down to the coast. The venerable and industrious old steamer, Alma, made regular stops at the jetty at Björknäs. Today Björknäsgården is a modern hotel offering discerning guests high standards of accommodation, comfort and service.
