We have not only travelled abroad, but also a lot in Sweden. Not least with the motorhome! Here you can take a look at some of the places we have visited. Feel free to tell us about nice places that we have missed!

Norrland
We visited northern Sweden during a motorhome trip in the summer of 2010. We went all the way up to Pite Havsbad, and then drove south again, along the coast. We have also taken the motorhome to the area around Gävle on a few other occasions. The following places have been visited in the northern part of Sweden, mostly by motorhome.
- Norrbotten - Piteå
- Västerbotten - Umeå, Lycksele, River Vindelälven
- Västernorrland High coast, High Coast Bridge
- Jämtland - Ytterhogdal
- Gävleborg - Cutting saw, Gävle, Furuvik, Roller sand, Gysinge
Svealand
The central part of Sweden is often a good place for us to go on motorhome trips. Here are some places we've visited, mostly by motorhome.
- Dalarna - Idre, Orsa, Falun, Falu mine, Avesta
- Västmanland - Sala silver mine, Västerås mälarcamping, Arboga, Kungsör
- Örebro - Örebro, lapping
- Uppsala - Skokloster camping, Härjarö camping
- Stockholm - Bro, Upplands Väsby, Åkersberga, Vaxholm, Värmdö, Gålö, Nynäshamn
- Södermanland - Strängnäs, Mariefred, Malmköping, Trosa
- Värmland - Sunne
Götaland
Even though I (Helena) come from Skåne, we don't often travel so far south. The reason is of course that it is too far to travel over a weekend when you live in Stockholm. Some of the places in Götalande we have visited on motorhome trips based in Stockholm. Others we have visited when we were on our way down to or up from Europe.
- Östergötland - Norrköping, Linköping, Valdemarsvik
- Västra Götaland - Vänersborg by motorhome, Smögen, Gothenburg
- Gotland - Visby
- Kalmar - Mönsterås
- Skåne - Ängelholm, Landskrona, Malmö, Ystad

What are your favourite places in Sweden? Where do you think we should take the campervan next?

It's easy to forget all that's here in Sweden when the world outside is also so enticing.
Thank you for your tips! I am collecting so I have a stock and can take out when needed.
But sharing the best of two worlds, Sweden and abroad, is fantastic.

Hi, I want to recommend two places, although they are probably the best to visit during the summer. Söderköping, eat ice cream at Smultronstället and also Marstrand, just walk around the island and look at all the nice houses.

It is true that we forget about what is closest to us, and Sweden is actually fantastic!

Ditte, I agree! Smaller tours in Sweden can be very cosy and there are many nice places to see! Having the opportunity to travel both in Sweden and abroad is perfect!
Sandra, thanks for the great tips! Söderköping is not so far from Stockholm, it is a good tip that could fit any weekend! I have also heard that Marstrand is nice!
Marina, it's easy to forget. The good thing about the motorhome is actually that we have travelled more in Sweden, and that it is easier to make these short trips. We always have somewhere to stay

Don't know if you were at Fyrudden outside Valdemarsvik.
We were there last summer with the campervan and a great
It was right there by the sea and the boat harbour.
We are happy to return there.
Take care.....

Norrbotten: kukkolaforsen! Very cosy, any time of the year:)
Lapland: Torne Swamp, all the way up to the Norwegian border. Incredibly beautiful in autumn
Maybe not something you do on a weekend, but definitely something you have to experience:)

Rolle and Carina, no we haven't? We have been where the picture is from, on the link. And then at a campsite, I think. Thanks for the tips!
Homenaway, oh a lot of tips from Norrland! I can imagine that it is nice! But no, it needs a little more time than a weekend ...

Many people come here to Norrland to see the midnight sun. It is wonderful that it is bright day and night. Hugs
