On Öland, nature changes between barren and open alvar lands, lush deciduous forests, fertile farmland, pine forests with rolling blueberry fields, white pines and dramatic coasts. Here there is room for both peace and adventure, with wonderful views. Experience the spring song of birds on a bike, a refreshing swim by the beach, the fresh autumn air along a hiking trail or the frosty alvar on a December day.
