The hiking trail Pustaleden, which means "Take your breath trail" is about 1.7km long and starts right beside the industrial museum in Huskvarna. There are about 100m of height difference on the relative short trail, that touches the waterfall Huskvarnafallet and Ebbes Kraftstation (Ebbes power station) on the way. The trail was created when Ebbes Kraftstation was built in the early 20th century. Some stairs, that were built in the 1930ies to make the path, which consists mainly of natural materials (earth, sand, meadow), more friendly for the tourists.

While it is not forbidden to use a bike on the trail, it is not really recommended. The local tourism agency of Jönköping put up some signs on historic facts of the area along the way. Parking is possible on the other side of the road, where the trail starts (entrance to the parking lot is at N57° 47.193 E14° 16.994).
