The trail crosses the Fylleån river and heads out on the old railway embankment, which goes all the way to Simlångsdalen. The section runs along a valley, hugging the shore of lakes Gyltigesjön, Töddesjön, Simlången and Brearedssjön. The campsite is located in Hule nature reserve. South of highway 25, where the trail crosses, there is a swimming spot, a picnic area with benches, barbecues and a toilet. The last stretch follows the embankment, before the trail turns up towards the bus stop. NOTE: Take great care when crossing highway 25.
