Itinerary
You start your Kattegat adventure on an almost flat route with breathtaking views over the sea. The route takes you on cycle paths and small side roads, pure enjoyment on two wheels!
From Ängelholm follow the coast to Vejbystrand. In the harbour of Magnarps is a nice little fish restaurant with breathtaking sea views. You leave the coast and cycle across the peninsula and through the Sinarpsdalen valley to the beautiful summer town of Båstad. Along one of Sweden's longest sandy beaches, you will pass the villages of Skummeslövsstrand and Mellbystrand. You will also cycle through the Tönnrersa and Gullbranna nature reserves before finally arriving in Halmstad.

Today Sweden's most famous beach awaits you: Tylösand. Your route continues north along the coast. The sea, open countryside, exciting nature reserves and lush farmland lie along the entire route. Via Grimsholmen, today's stage takes you to Falkenberg, one of the oldest towns in Halland county.
Today you can look forward to picturesque fishing villages and many artisans. In Träslövsläge you have the opportunity to enjoy freshly cooked lobster. As you approach Varberg, you will see Varberg Fortress rising in front of you.
North of Varberg the landscape changes. The sandy beaches are becoming rarer and there are more and more rocks. The first islands also become visible. In Åsa, you leave the coast for a while and cycle through fields and over rolling hills to Fjärås Bräcka. Enjoy the breathtaking view and visit the Li Tomb with its more than 100 building temples. Passing fields and horse farms you finally reach Kungsbacka, a cosy small former trading town with an impressive old centre.
Did you miss the sea? How good that it is with you again today. You pass Vallda and approach Särö, the place of relaxation for the middle class of Gothenburg in the last century. After Särö you continue cycling along the former railway line. Rocks, lush forests, bays and harbours also lie in your path before reaching Gothenburg.
Departure from Gothenburg or spend extra nights in the city or surrounding region.
