Day 7
Before heading back to Malmö, be sure to tick off another few highlights blending unique Swedish nature and cultural heritage.
Hike among the caves and wildlife of Kullaberg Nature Reserve
From Grand Hotel Mölle to Östra Kullaberg: 8 min by car/20 min bike ride/ 55 min walk
Set across mountainous terrain, the Kullaberg Nature Reserve is beautiful in a dramatic way. Various hiking trails wind their way through the area’s cliffs and caves, of which there are more than 20. Wildlife roaming its shores includes foxes, hares, rabbits, deer and boars. Bird species you may spot include whitethroat and linnet.
Have lunch at the historic Kullens Fyr (Kullen Lighthouse)
Kullaberg’s nature reserve is home to one of Scandinavia’s oldest lighthouses – the 16th century Kullens Fyr. Head here – via either of the two main trails – for lunch or a snack in the resident summer café, or sit down for a picnic on the surrounding rocks or tables.
Admire the iconic outdoor artwork Nimis by Lars Vilks
From Kullens Fyr: 20 min by car/40 min bike ride/2h walk
The enormous driftwood sculpture Nimis by Lars Vilks is a Swedish icon. Appearing like a twig-based fortress on the waterline of the Kullaberg nature reserve, the first version cropped up here in the 1980s, and it keeps evolving.
Have dinner at Kullagårdens Wärdshus
From Nimis: 15 min by car/30 min bike ride/1h 40 min walk
Set in lush greenery near Mölle Golf Club, Kullagårdens Wärdshus hotel has a restaurant with a diverse menu based on good, fuss-free food. This spot is particularly popular during the warmer months, allowing you to sit outside and lap up the unique Swedish nature of Skåne – a region you might find difficult to leave.
