This is a cycling experience that lets you follow in the footsteps of Jonas Jonasson's bestselling book and the award-winning movie "The Hundred-Year-Old Who Went Out the Window and Disappeared”. Here you cycle through the beautiful landscape of Sörmland and visit places where several scenes were filmed.

The tour can start at Strand Golf, where you can check into a hotel and restaurant housed in a converted barn - perfect for those who want to stay overnight. From there, cycle towards Byringe station, the place where the Hundred Year Old and his accomplice locked a motorcycle gang member in the freezer. The journey continues towards Åkerstyckebruk, where the same gang set off with the trolley.

The route then continues towards Mariefred, Stallarholmen, Strängnäs and Vansö. In Vansö you take off towards Härad and Arsenalen - Sweden's largest military history museum. Here, among exhibitions about bombs and grenades, Allan Karlsson as an explosives expert would have enjoyed himself perfectly. The day can end with a coffee at the museum's café or a return trip to Strand for a well-deserved dinner.
