The Racing Garden — A Swedish Folkrace Paradise
Some people dream of a peaceful house in the Swedish countryside. Others dream of a garage filled with racing cars.
Here, you never have to choose between the two.
Surrounded by Falun-red houses, blooming gardens, old stone walls and white wooden fences lies a little paradise devoted to Swedish folkrace. Among the flowers stand generations of beloved racing machines — a green Bubbla, classic Volvos and other battle-ready cars, while more projects wait patiently inside the open workshop.
This is not simply where the cars are stored. This is where their stories begin.
Inside the traditional red garage, engines are tuned, damaged cars are rebuilt and new machines slowly take shape. Outside, one racer is already missing a wheel as another day of preparation continues. Some cars carry the dirt and scars of previous battles, while others wait freshly prepared for their next starting grid.
Yet beyond the mechanical work, everything feels wonderfully peaceful. Apple blossoms and wildflowers fill the garden, the Swedish flag flies against a brilliant summer sky, and the surrounding forests create the unmistakable atmosphere of rural Sweden. Racecars that normally live among dust, noise and competition suddenly become part of the countryside idyll.
Soon, engines will roar again. Six cars will line up. Someone will take the lead, someone will make an impossible overtake, and another battered machine will return home needing repairs.
But on this beautiful summer day, the racecars are resting in the garden — exactly where they belong.
