A 17th-century wooden church, a lit running trail and a recommended cycling tour to the Siggaboda Nature Reserve reveal different sides of Häradsbäck. There are also destinations in the town centre and the Härlunda fishing area. When planning your visit, you can choose between exploring the town, outdoor activities and opportunities for fishing and boating.
Wooden church and destinations in the town centre
Härlunda kyrka, a wooden church, is located in Häradsbäck. The wooden building dates back to the 17th century and offers a tangible historical landmark during a stay in the town. Together with the facilities in the centre, it makes for a visit to the town without needing to plan a longer excursion.
The centre is home to Balders Hage, a venue for events and entertainment, and Härlunden, a small park with seating and barbecue facilities. The two places offer different things: Balders Hage hosts events and entertainment, while Härlunden offers a park setting with places to sit and barbecue facilities. Also visit Häradsbäck playground, which has an obstacle course, trampoline and swings, among other things. These specific play facilities add another stop to the town’s attractions.
Running trail or cycling tour to the nature reserve?
Häradsbäck has a lit running trail that is 1.9 kilometres long. If you would rather plan a route to a natural area, you can follow the Trollskogsrundan: a start in Häradsbäck is recommended. From there, the route goes by bicycle to the other side of the lake and the Siggaboda Nature Reserve, where there are hiking trails.
The two options differ mainly in what they offer: the running trail is lit and has a stated length, while the Trollskogsrundan leads by bicycle to a nature reserve with hiking trails. You can choose between exercising on a local running trail and taking a cycling tour with hiking trails at the destination.
Härlunda: lakes, fishing and boats
The Härlunda fishing area is located in Häradsbäck. Its sparsely populated forest landscape is home to around 60 lakes. This focus on water and forest differs from the offerings in the town centre and can be considered as a separate part of your stay.
Fishing and boating permits for the fishing area can be purchased via a smartphone on iFiske.se. Härlunda FVOF also rents out nine boats through iFiske; advance booking is possible. Permits and boat rentals are separate offerings. If you are planning to use a boat on a specific date, check availability through iFiske.
Information for motorhome travellers
Mötesplats Häradsbäck is a motorhome stop with facilities for emptying greywater and toilet waste. For motorhome travellers, this is a practical consideration in addition to the town’s attractions, the running trail and the facilities in the fishing area.
