Danske Vandfald

The name "Danish Waterfall" comes from the battle at Fyllebro on 17 August 1676 between Denmark and Sweden, when Charles XI reigned. According to the story, the Swedes cut down the suspension bridge while the Danes were on the bridge. The area is a very beautiful nature reserve that stretches south along Söderåsen!

Hallandsstien

Hallandsleden or Halland Trail is a 360 km long hiking trail through Halland. Hallandsstien is adjacent to Skånestien in the south and Bohusstien in the north. On its way through Halland, the trail splits in eastern and western direction at Simlångsgården. Both sections meet again in the Åkulla area. From Varberg you can follow "Europaled 1" and join the other parts of the Halland trail just before Åkulla.

So remember your walking shoes, even if you're on a car holiday!
