A path winds through this wild creek valley, bordered by an enchanting beech forest. It was formed during the Ice Age, which is still evident today in the bedrock characterized by numerous stones.

A wildly romantic side valley with massive stone blocks forming a kind of wall. During the Danish-Swedish War, this was a hideout for the rebels known as the Snapphanes. If you explore the area, you might discover small caves that served as dwellings back then.

Varberg is a lovely coastal town known for its sandy beaches, well‑preserved medieval fortress, and a picturesque promenade that doubles as a popular cycling route along the Kattegat shoreline. The town sits on the Kattegattleden long‑distance cycle path, making it a key stop to combine seaside views with easy access to cafés, beaches, and spa facilities.

The castle is a must-see; there's no way around it.

A narrow trail along the eastern shore of Lake Rössjön. The trail is littered with roots and rocks, and in places very narrow, with no significant technical challenges. Hikers are to be expected, so please ride with caution.

It's the perfect spot for a leisurely picnic, and with luck, you might even spot an osprey. Be careful: there are a lot of ants.

The beautiful trails through the ancient beech forests lead to views of Lake Skärsjön. Access to some areas is restricted during breeding season between April and July, so be sure to check and respect guidelines at this time.
