A Pearl
Fryken by Lake
Fryken is a natural stop on the journey through our beautiful landscape. The view across the lake is probably best enjoyed from the restaurant Frykens Pärla – the “pearl of Lake Fryken” – in Lysvik. It is located by the water on the eastern side. To have a meal together in the evening during the summer months on the jetty is a taste of pure heaven. Text: Niklas Simonsson

oday, the large beautiful building houses both a café and restaurant, as well as an interior design shop. No matter where you sit, the neighbouring table is always the fantastic view across the lake. In addition, Frykens Pärla is connected to Lysviks Camping, which rents summer cottages and offers a range of exciting activities. Go hiking, fishing or take a refreshing dip in Lake Fryken. Lysvik offers some of the very best things to do and see. The business is run by Niclas Olsson, an entrepreneur who is used to being busy. – I bought the business together with a colleague 13 years ago, and I’ve been running it on my own since 2017. What attracted me was the location. The eastern side of Fryken is incredibly beautiful. There are many splendid places around Sweden, but nothing compares to sunset here in May or June. The light summer evenings and nights by Lake Fryken can’t be bettered, and you will find nothing like it anywhere else, says owner Niclas Olsson.
