Billingen is a mesa in Västergötland, Sweden. Limestone used for concrete manufacturing is mined here. The mountain, located between the two great lakes Vänern and Vättern, is also a popular nature resort with several nearby hotels, and an annual orienteering tournament is held here [ [http://www.skovde.se/templates/S_PictureList.aspx?id=15915 Billingens fritidsområde - Skövde Kommun - www.skovde.se ] ] .
