Ramsvikslandet

Ramsvikslandet extends along the Swedish west coast with rocky outcrops, coastal cliffs, and numerous hiking trails across its 14.5-kilometer expanse.

The area transformed from a peninsula into an island during the 1930s when the construction of the Sote Canal separated it from the mainland.

The southern section, known as Tryggö, contains a large Bronze Age cairn called King Tryggves grave, marking ancient settlements in the region.

Visitors can access marked trails from two main parking areas at Tångevik in North Ramsvik and Haby in South Ramsvik, with trail maps available at entry points.

The nature reserve features geological formations from the Ice Age, including giant cauldrons and clear marks of glacial movement on the rock surfaces.
