Two cottages beside Svärfarbäcken with N Sytertoppen and Morhtetjåhke as a backdrop. The older cottage was erected in 1923 to serve as a base for ascents of N Sytertoppen, which at 1767 meters is the highest mountain in Västerbotten county, and not surprisingly such tours are still popular. There is a marked summer trail for that very purpose, and it is possible to continue along this trail to Viterskalet after passing the summit. The shop that has previously been here was retired during the summer of 2020.
