nature experiences - all year round

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.

Lake lands, alvar lands, farmland and the row villages in southern Öland constitute the world heritage. Together, they bear witness to how the land has been used in the same way by man and animal in symbiosis for millennia. This heritage is unique in the world and worth both experiencing and preserving for future generations.
