Where is Blekinge?

Blekinge lies on Sweden’s Baltic coast, between Skåne and Småland in the south-east of the country. The region covers five municipalities: Sölvesborg, Olofström, Karlshamn, Ronneby and Karlskrona.

Along the coast, you’ll find seaside towns, fishing villages and an archipelago of islands. Head inland for woodland and lakes. Choose a base, then plan your days around what you’d most like to see and do.

Stay a little longer and see more of Blekinge

Choose one place as your base and give each outing a day of its own. Here are three ideas to shape your stay:

  • History and gardens: explore Karlskrona, then spend a day in Ronneby Brunnspark, the town’s historic spa park.
  • Islands and forest lakes: combine a stay in Karlshamn with a day by Lake Halen in Olofström.
  • Beaches and island life: explore the Listerlandet peninsula and set aside a day for Hanö island.

Choose somewhere to stay close to what matters to you: the sea, the woodland or an evening meal in town.
