Eriksbergsleden

– Wilderness, Suspension Bridge, and Adventure in Blekinge 

Discover one of Blekinge’s most dramatic hiking trails—through dense forests, across deep waters on a swaying suspension bridge, and along coastal cliffs where bison roam freely. Situated alongside Northern Europe’s largest wildlife reserve, Eriksbergsleden (trail) offers more than stunning views—it's a nature adventure guaranteed to get your adrenaline pumping.

  • Sea eagles soaring above the shoreline
