Helsingborg Travel Guide: 111 reviews and 239 photos

The southernmost tip of Sweden is the province of Skåne.

This is an area of fertile fields and meadows which was ruled by the Danes until 1658.

To this day the Skånians have maintained their own distinctive dialect.
Reminder of the days of Danish rule there are more than 200 castles and manors scattered over the province, often forming part of a farm. This region is famous for its food and the landscape is characterised by rolling fields and pastures and forests but only a few lakes. The best spots for swimming and fishing are along the east, south and west coasts. Inland there are countless small lanes ideal for cycling tours.

Skåne has some of the finest and most beautifully located courses in Sweden.
Other main regional attractions include the medieval town of Lund which has a 12th-century cathedral and 14th-century astronomical clock, Helsingborg, Ystad, Falsterbo, Mölle and Båstad.
Great province to travel by car, most of the towns mentioned very easy to travel at your leisure.

Have a wounderful time.
Best regards
Shiran
