We offer a 2-3 day walking package on some of our beautiful islands. You’ll stay at our cosy Bed & Bike on the main island, Öckerö.
Day 1
Arrival at the accommodation and check in from 15.00. Afterwards you could hike a bit of the trail, starting from the B & B. On the way down to Kanndalen harbour take the path to the right up through the rocks. From here you can get to some exciting rocks to swim from, called Jacobs Bratt. Follow the headland down to the water then cross the shingle to get to the Saltas swimming area. Head for Öckerö church and wander through the churchyard. You’ll have time for a visit to Öckerö’s local history museum before coming out on to our road, Sörgårdsvägen. You can hire bikes from us and cycle down to Hönö Klåva for some food.
- Accommodation: Bed & Bike Öckerö
Day 2
After breakfast set off on a daylong walk from the accommodation, heading south on Hönö through the Ersdalen nature reserve, with its extensive views out to the horizon. Via Lapposand’s beaches, “Bådevi” and the Hästen swimming area you’ll reach Hönö Klåva where there’s a fishing museum, cafes, restaurants and shops. You can either eat the packed lunch we can provide you with, or for a supplement of 100 sek enjoy Tullhuset’s fantastic fish lunch. You can continue to walk over to Fotö island if you want, then take the bus back to the accommodation from there. Bus no. 2 brings you back, getting off at the Hönö norra stop.

Day 3
After breakfast and check out no later than 11.00 (you can leave your baggage here) take the bus over to Burö and from there the yellow ferry over to Rörö. Today’s hike goes through the harbour over lovely heathland with unusual flora, where sheep and horses graze. A narrow path winds along the shingle beach, which is decorated with artwork made from flotsam and jetsam. Take the same ferry and bus back to the accommodation, bus no.1 or 290, to Kanndalen.
