Travel guides to Sweden’s most beautiful places

Sweden is a country of rare beauty, even amid its starkest northern landscapes. Its cities and towns testify to 1000 years of urban life, but there are precious places offering glimpses into even older traditions of human settlement.

VISIT SWEDEN’S CITIES

Sweden is the largest Scandinavian country and packs in more diversity. Its landscapes are flat by comparison with some parts of Europe, but its forests are rich environments and its archipelagos and limestone plains are natural havens valued by Swedes and well worth discovery.

Sweden’s traditional wooden residential and farm buildings vary by region and its modern architecture can be daring. Swedish prehistoric sites and runestones give tantalising glimpses into a past we can never fully recapture, but also give us a sense of continuity.

Swedish society has always been bold enough to do things its own way and the country believes in discovering and developing unique approaches. Travellers to Sweden are in for something different.

Transport

Trains cover the longest distances in Sweden, although in the remote interior regional transport authorities run buses on hours-long journeys.

The Resrobot web page can help with planning all hops, including ferries. To use the site in English, search ‘Resrobot’ on Google and click the ‘Translate this page’ button or use this link.

Hotels, hostels & more

Accommodation is a big business for Austrians because of the relative strength of tourism in the economy. Affordable stays in Austria are possible with planning. Using a combination of budget hotels, hotels garnis, pensions, private rooms and online deals, Raven Guides stayed in Austria in 2023 at an average nightly single rate of €76. Of 30 nights, five did not include breakfast and five involved shared toilet and shower facilities.
