Ystad Guide

What is there to do in Ystad?

Unlike many tourist destinations that rely on the summer heat, spring breeze or winter frost to appeal to visitors, Ystad is a haven of natural beauty all year round. The wonderfully verdant terrain is a hiker’s paradise; the steep and challenging walking trails supply a hearty workout, the perfect way to spend an afternoon in the mild heat whilst admiring the stunning panoramic vistas afforded from the apex of the hillside. For those that prefer to take life at a more leisurely pace, a beautiful collage of flora and fauna decorates the landscape in the scenery bordering the crisp lake, usually lined with fishermen hoping for their catch of the day. To stay active as you witness all the cultural landmarks, The national bicycle route in Sydostleden showcases beautiful nature reserves and ancient heritage sites as you traverse on two wheels. The breathtaking views and refreshing countryside is hard to prize yourself away from, but after a day basking in the great outdoors, a plethora of fashionable restaurants, serving sumptuous food are the ideal way to wind down in the warmth of a cosy atmosphere.
