The Swedish Trail is an almost nationwide cycle route and passes all of Sweden's landscapes except Gotland. The trail runs on public roads, mostly on asphalt, and is divided into a main road and a number of alternative routes. The main route runs between Helsingborg and Karesuando (2620 km).
The Sweden Trail stretches through old cultural landscapes and mostly follows less busy roads inland. In larger cities such as Stockholm, Gothenburg, Helsingborg and Linköping, the trail runs mainly along car-free cycle paths. As the Sweden Trail largely goes through inhabited areas, it is relatively easy to stop at different places to eat a piece of food or have coffee along the way.
The Swedish route has several alternative routes, such as across Stockholm and Gothenburg. In addition, there are branches to Norway, i Skalmodal (Vasterbotten), Gaddede (Jämtland) as well Hook Satra (Dalarna). There are also alternative routes to the east Trelleborg (Skåne) and Byxelkrok (Öland). The total length of the alternative trails is 3,980 km. The Swedish Cycling Association has developed the trail and drawn up all the signs along the Sweden Trail.
The app is a practical way to use Sweden by Bike on your phone, including routes, favorites and selected membership features.
