Cycling & hiking

Christian Gerlach

Southeast Skåne is perfect for getting there on foot or by bike, especially if you choose to travel along Ystad and Österlen's many hiking and biking trails. The surroundings' varied environments offer pastures and fields, deciduous and coniferous forests, seas and lakes. The distances are short and the excursions are easy to adapt as a day or multi-day excursion.

In a flat rolling landscape, the view is always great, no matter where you start from. Here you choose an excursion according to taste and weather. Coastal if you want to be able to stop for a dip or colorful deciduous forest if the wind blows. Skåneleden offers hiking in different stages where you can choose the length and difficulty that suits you. The south coast trail and the southeast trail show the way if you come by bike. Along the trails there are barbecue areas, facilities and often windbreaks to take part in. Our tip: combine the nature excursion with an activity, dining experience or relaxing accommodation that provides energy for your remaining trip.
