Trelleborg is a fascinating holiday destination as it is one of Skane's oldest cities. The name stems from a certain type of Viking Age fortress known as a trelleborg. Trelleborgen is the only remaining Viking fortress on Swedish soil. In the summer you can watch live theatre on site.

You can climb to the top of Vattentornet, the water tower which is an iconic sight, as well as a great observation deck where you can enjoy spectacular views.

Make sure to pay a visit to Smygehuk, the southernmost point in Sweden. The stunning cape east of Trelleborg is surrounded by stony shores. You will always be close to a white sand beach, as the municipality has 35 kilometres of coastline.

Buses and the Pagatagen Trains are reliable, but there are also great bicycle paths, so why not explore the area on two wheels?

Off season stay
"First off, we were there off season, so it is probably much nicer during spring/summer etc. Very service minded, for me the food in the restaurant wasn’t up to par and the room was quite claustrophobic."
