Vakö myr-rundan

This wonderful circular cycle trail links Älmhult and Vakö Myr, a special nature reserve with a signed path and a fantastic viewpoint. Vakö Myr is one of the largest marshes of its kind in southern Sweden.

Route description: Begin in the centre of Älmhult and cycle north on Norra Esplanaden. Don’t forget to pack a picnic, as you’ll be glad of it when you reach Kullen later. Just past Älmhult golf club you need to cross Road 23 with great care. The trail then winds through the Småland countryside. Note the option of combining this route with the Rås- hult Tour. In Möllekulla and south of Åbogen, the trail takes you across the Helge Å river, where you can find some great spots for a break. Otherwise, continue to Vakö Myr Nature Reserve, where you can park your bike and explore this marshy landscape by foot. Then continue back towards Älmhult via the meadows and forests of Sutarekull and Gölshult.
