This sleepy little village is known as the cultural center of Siljan but, frankly, there is not much to see or do here. If the weather is nice, walk out on the wooden pier, Långbryggan, probably the longest of its kind in the world, built in 1895 to allow steamships to approach. The water is amazingly shallow outside Rättvik; even after walking the 628 m (700 yards) to the end of the pier, you can still see the sandy bottom. Looking back at Rättvik from the pier, you will have a great view of the village and the ski slope to the right, where you can try the toboggan track in the summer! The beautiful Rättvik Church can be seen on your left, surrounded by trees on a little peninsula across the bay.
