Just before Björnöbron there is a clearly marked gravel road that takes you all the way to Gäddeholm. It is perfect for the cyclist who wants to take an approximately 6 km ride there surrounded by beautiful nature (12 km round trip). The cycle path is signposted all the way and is suitable for the whole family.
The trail is paved with gray so-called stone flour. While blending into the environment, it is an easy surface to cycle on. This trail is suitable for those who walk, jog or cycle.
Near the start there is a large outdoor center for many different activities and if you need to rent a bike, you can do so here. At Aktivt Uteliv Björnögården you can find everything from kayaking to mountain biking courses, to renting SUP or roller skis.
Once you are out on the trail, enjoy the peace and quiet of the proper gravel road surrounded by lovely flowers, and with nice views on the way over Trådarängarna via Hässlö. You cycle through a bird sanctuary with lush forests and open meadows. Along the way you will see two bird towers marked out, which are suitable for a break if needed. The bird towers have both roofs and windbreaks and are accessible to the disabled. The reeds attract many different kinds of birds. Perhaps you will see herons, swans, cranes or maybe a bird of prey?
Before Gäddeholm Herrgård arrives, there is the possibility of seeing some cows, if they are not shy. Don't forget to wave!
Once inside Gäddeholm, there are several places that can attract. Gäddeholm Herrgård has been around for several hundred years and is the start of Gäddeholm. The area has grown incredibly since then. Past the manor you will find Gäddeholms Trädgård which has a large assortment of plants but also offers soft drinks and ice cream. You will also find Wåffelbaren in the area where you can enjoy coffee, waffles and tranquility.
It is recommended to continue down to the swimming area for a lovely rest. There is a sandy beach, large grassy areas, playground, toilets and much more. It is a good ending before cycling home.
