The Ljungleden trail takes you through a varied West Swedish landscape between Gothenburg and Falköping. Along the way, forests, lakes, open farmland and charming small towns await. The name comes from the heather (Västergötland's landscape flower) which, together with flowering meadows, rapeseed fields and forest areas, puts its stamp on the experience.

The trail connects two popular cycling trails, Kattegattleden and Ätradalsleden, and gives you the opportunity for a longer and varied cycling vacation through western Sweden. You cycle mainly on asphalt along cycle paths and quiet country roads, with shorter sections on gravel.
