Swedish mountain cattle were kept as dairy cows or domestic cattle in Norrland’s remote mountain regions. They are a healthy breed with a good temperament and manage well in meagre pasture. They are often a little smaller than normal mountain cows and yield less milk.
Today’s Swedish mountain cattle originate from six different populations and have been regarded as a separate breed with their own breeding register.
