This cycling package takes you along one of Sweden's most beautiful coastlines from Helsingborg to idyllic Halmstad. Along the way, you'll enjoy countless scenic gems along the way, while being able to cycle at your own pace thanks to the moderately long daily stages. Each night you will rest in hand-picked hotels and guesthouses in charming towns such as Arild, Vejbystrand and Båstad.

Helsingborg, the starting point of your adventure, is one of Sweden's most densely populated cities. We highly recommend adding an extra night here before your cycling trip to give you the chance to dive into the city's culinary world. You'll find everything from small, cozy pubs around Mariatorget to seaside restaurants with impressive views of the Öresund.

To make your trip even smoother, luggage transportation is offered as an option, which means you don't have to transport your own luggage. When the adventure is over, you can easily take the train back to Helsingborg, or to your home town. The bike can also be taken on board the Öresund train, subject to availability. If you come by car, there are two long-term parking lots in Helsingborg, Sockerbruksgatan and Sundstorgsgaraget.

Your journey takes you past many picturesque seaside resorts and charming villages.

Your final destination for the day is Vejbystrand, where you can rest in a picturesque, family-run hotel located directly by the sea. Here you can enjoy a wonderful sandy beach just a stone's throw from the hotel, and for the tennis enthusiast, a tennis court is only 500 meters away.

A well planned route, stunningly beautiful scenery to see and experience by bike. Good standard of both bikes and accommodation. The contact with the organizer was consistently good. Friendly treatment and high availability.

Very nice bike ride Helsingborg-Halmstad, well signposted, reasonably long distances, beautiful nature, occasional parties near major roads, good accommodation.

As we were very satisfied with last year's cycling on the South Coastal Trail, we chose this year to cycle the Kattegatt Trail from Helsingborg to Halmstad. We are again completely satisfied with the help we received. The communication has been great, as well as the choice of accommodation - a fun mix of hotels, guesthouses and a winery. We got lots of tips on what we could do and see during the cycling. Thank you very much!

Top marks. But next time I'll rent a 21 speed bike with softer saddle 😊
