Explore Österlen on Two Wheels

The rolling countryside dotted with green meadows and yellow rapeseed fields, the black-and-white half-timbered houses, the red poppies swaying in the wind, and the blue sea in the background all create an exotic atmosphere.

Discovering Österlen by bike is a treat. One of the great advantages is all the small friendly roads that wind through the landscape. You'll bike through apple orchards, fields, and meadows. Sometimes you'll come across dramatic cliffs that drop into the sea, and other times you'll find soft, sandy beaches that blend into the waves of the Hanö Bay. Along the way, you'll pass by inns serving delicious food, wineries, farm shops, cafes, and galleries. If you've been biking for a while, you might be tempted by a lavish cake buffet, a specialty in Österlen. The area is home to hundreds of artists and craftsmen; it was here that the first Konstrundan was organized in 1969. Art, ceramics, and silverwork can be found along the roads, as well as in many picturesque fishing villages and towns. The Danish heritage is evident in the architecture and gives a cozy feeling.
