Ulvön, high coast

The second day during our visit at Höga Kusten we visited island Ulvön. The island is situated in Örnsköldsvik archipelago, in the heart of the Höga Kusten (High Coast). Actually Ulvön is two islands - North and South Ulvön. Ulvö-harbour is located on the north island, well protected in Ulvösundet.

Ulvön is perhaps best known for surströmming (fermented herring), produced on the island for over a hundred years.
During winter months only about 40 people live on Ulvön, but during the summers it comes to life, with many tourists and summer house owners.
