We were staying in Southern Sweden for a few days before heading up north. Looking for a nice…read moredaytrip we stumbled upon this charming little town, which was well worth the two-hour drive. The harbour/waterfront is the heart of it along with the Storgatan which runs down to the harbour. Pretty buildings, a quiet and picturesque harbourfront and some nice little restaurants and shops makes this small town a real gem. Easy to walk and only a few minutes away is a real nice sandy beach. Park right at the harbour (3 hour limit) or park a bit further away at the camping/beach where you can get up to 6 hours free parking. Besides the cafés and restaurants there's a real good Grill/Seafood Kiosk at the harbour (Hamngrillen), with good fish items on the menu for little money. Tables out as well. One of the most charming small towns we've visited this summer in Sweden. Loved it.

We took a little "roadtrip" today and discovered this hidden gem! We thought it was a little…read moreexpensive to get it, but trust me...it's worth it. The animals are well taken care of, and there's a wide variety of animals to look at. There's even a little petting area with the cutest goats! There's a small swimming pool which was a nice surprise on such a warm day. We swam for a few hours and had an ice cream. Bring your picnic basket or small barbecue. There are plenty of picnic tables throughout the park. But don't bring too much to carry because there's a bit of walking, including up and down hills. Great place to go with the family

It's been a few months, but I'm hoping that all my pictures from the beautiful afternoon spent here…read moreattach to this review. They say in so many images what I just couldn't in words. Ales Stenar, or "Ale's Stones," is a monolithic stone ship that dates back to the Nordic Iron Age. Located in Skåne (or Scania) on the Southern Swedish coast, Ales Stenar is oval in shape, and consists of many different sized standing stones that are also different in color. The bright pink one was my favorite. I had the absolute privilege of visiting them with an archaeologist, and it was one of the best days of my life. We stopped at several points of historic interest along the breathtaking coast during my trip. I also walked inside a stone circle leading into a caved in Stone Age tomb (a few days later in the trip I was able to actually walk all the way inside a tomb!!!), explored petroglyph sites, hiked to a burial site on the beach, and put my toes into the Baltic Sea, all on the same day!! You can't drive up to the site, but there is a gravel parking area in town with a map and friendly greeter kitty that will show you the way. If you walk toward the beach you need only keep right and follow the trail up to the stones. I recommend using Googlemaps if you don't have a Swedish friend with you. ;-) Yes you can actually touch the stones. Unlike that other stone monument... Please please PLEASE leave them as you left them and pack out what you pack in. May 2019, the best birthday month a girl could ask for. I apologize if my facts are not as accurate as they could be.

We visited this place, just because we stayed in the South of Sweden for a few days. Even I knew…read moreand read about it, I didn't expect much. But then it started at the (free) parking lot, which was quite huge, a lot bigger than expected. Then I knew this is not just a roadside attraction. There's an easy stroll up to the Ales Stenar. But be aware: For some parts it's a bit difficult if you have a stroller and nearly impossible if you rely on a wheelchair. The Megalith formation lies on top of this small hill, offering wonderful views of the surrounding coast. And for that only it's already worth to visit. The Megalith formation consists of 59 stones, circled up in an oval (ship) formation. And it's quite an impressive sight. It's not as big or as impressive as Stonehenge (which DOES hold up to the hype btw), but it's quite a sight nonetheless. There's no entrance fee, no fences or anything. Which is quite surprising. I only wished that people (not only kids) wouldn't climb around on these stones so much. Can't be good on the long run. We loved it. Was pretty busy on this morning, but still quite alright. We were also happy that dogs are allowed (on leash). Enjoy it as long as it lasts as it is. I quite believe fees and further restrictions will come up one day.
