Vartofta

Travel Guide

View over the countryside where I come from - a small village named Vartofta, located about 220km to the east of Gothenburg in Västergötland. An area mostly famous for the ancient stone- and bronze age findings (graves, jewlery, pottery), the birds of lake Hornborga and of course its many churches. 

What I like about this off-the-beaten-path area is mostly the landscape. Crop fields in different sizes and colors, green hills, thick forests. It all makes a perfect place to wander off and just relax and enjoy the nature.

If ever coming to the south/west of Sweden, give me a shout and I'll give you some tips - or, if I'm not out travelling, I might even show you around the area! 😊

A day like this I'm pretty happy to be home in Sweden. 😀

The photo shows the surroundings of my home village, Vartofta - 120km east of Gothenburg.

Home sweet home, countryside in Sweden. Outside small town Falköping, about 120km east of gothenburg.

Really off the beaten path. But a lovely area to visit. Much to see here including lots of stone age graves, rune stones and things like that.

A beautiful day at home! A small village called Vartofta, in Västra Götaland, located in-between the two largest lakes of Sweden (just some 120km to the east of Gothenburg).

Besides a beautiful landscape - with trekking, hiking, cycling and skiing opportunities - you will find picturesque lakes and rivers, rune stones, churches, graves and other things dating all the way back to the stone age. It is an off-the-beaten-path area which is best seen during a road trip - with a car or perhaps even a bicycle.

Naturen fantastisk med alla små sjöar. Stugan ok . Lite slitet intryck. Men där fanns vad vi behövde för några övernattningar.
