The route from Vrankunge to Byxelkrok takes travelers through a fascinating combination of history, coastlines and genuine Småland and island charm.

The starting point, Vrankunge, is nestled in the heart of Småland. From here, through lush forests and vast fields, the road leads to Kalmar, one of Sweden's most historic cities. Kalmar, with its magnificent castle and picturesque old streets, tells a story of Sweden in the Middle Ages and the time of union with Denmark. The city is also the gateway to Öland, the sunny island that attracts visitors with its unique nature and culture.

After crossing the Öland Bridge, the journey continues through Öland's characteristic alvar fields, old mills and historic villages. The journey culminates in Byxelkrok, located on the northern tip of the island. This charming coastal town is known for its beautiful beaches, fishing villages and the mythical Trollskogen, a place where nature and legends intertwine.
