Eneström: ''Gnosjöboarna, deras hemslöjd, seder och lefnadssätt'').〔(article Gnosjö ) from Nordisk Familjebok, 1908〕 The landscape is dominated by forests. The rural areas offer good possibilities for wildlife, canoeing, fishing, hiking, etc. The Store Mosse is a national park consisting of the largest boggy ground (in Sweden) south of Lapland.
