Lying on Lake Fryken, Sunne is the center for tourism in Fryksdalen (Fryken Valley or the 'land of legend'). Its scenic natural landscape is perfect for outdoor activities. Visitors can canoe, hike or cycle in the nature reserves with their unique flora. Sunne is also a modern ski resort with facilities for both cross-country skiing and alpine skiing. Due to moderating influences from the North Atlantic and lake Vänern to its south, Sunne has a humid continental climate that it is a lot milder than areas in northern Värmland or western Dalarna such as Höljes or Malung.
