The dramatic landscape at Alvaret
One of the most famous areas on Öland is southern Öland's farming landscape and Alvaret, a barren and unique limestone plain that stretches across large parts of the southern island. This World Heritage Site offers a distinctive and almost surreal landscape that few places in the world can match. The alvar is especially beautiful in spring and early summer when it blooms with a variety of rare plants. The combination of flora and fauna makes it a dreamlike place for nature lovers. Walking across this plain is like traveling through time and space in an environment that breathes freedom and tranquility.
The picturesque town of Borgholm
For those who want to combine natural beauty with charming architecture and culture, Öland's only city – Borgholm is a must. This is not only the summer residence of the royal family but also a beautiful place to explore. Here you can walk along the harbor and enjoy the beautiful views over Kalmarsund. It is not unusual to be greeted by live music from local events. The cozy atmosphere and the historic buildings in Borgholm provide a perfect background for a relaxing day trip on Öland. Also, don't miss all the fantastic restaurants there are.
Västra Öland's mighty sunsets
Nothing beats Öland when it comes to sunsets, and Öland's west coast offers some of the most spectacular ones imaginable. The golden rays that caress the surface of the sea at the horizon create a feeling of tranquility and beauty that is hard to match. Places like Byrum's raukar and Äleklinta offer a perfect view of this spectacle. Bring a picnic basket and enjoy the tranquility as the sun slowly sets, coloring the sky in pink and orange tones.
