The Garphyttan National Park is located west of the Swedish city ​​of Örebro .

Garphyttan is an old cultural landscape that has been shaped by agriculture and forestry. Meadows and deciduous forests are surrounded by the Kilsberg coniferous forest. The originally cultivated areas are still cultivated using traditional methods. In addition to rich vegetation, the dormouse , which is rare in Sweden and is well represented here, is the main attraction of the national park.

The main entrance to the national park is at Svenshyttan. Several circular routes lead through the park. The Bergslag Trail also leads through the national park.
