At the innermost bay of Lake Mälaren lies Köping - a charming small town surrounded by beautiful nature and traces of the long history of mining. Here you can stay comfortably at Best Western Hotel Scheele, named after the chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele who worked in the city in the 18th century. The hotel is centrally located, within walking distance of restaurants, culture and services. Perfect as a base for your cycling vacation.
In Köping you'll find a wealth of both history and nature. The Mälardalsleden trail passes through here, and for those who like mountain biking, there are fine MTB trails in Skoftesta, Johannisdal and Karlbergsskogen - three trails that wind like a trefoil around the city. You can also follow the old KUJ track, which is now a cycle path, or visit the city's museums along the popular museum trail.
After the day's tour, a comfortable bed, a hot shower and perhaps a moment of relaxation with the hotel's own masseur await you. Start your morning in the best possible way, with a generous breakfast buffet that will recharge your batteries for the next stage. Hotel Scheele offers a hospitable, homely atmosphere and is an obvious choice for those who discover Mälardalen by bike.
