You can choose among our many canoe and kayak waterways which connect our lakes with the cities in the region, allowing you to travel from the conveniences of the city to secret archipelagos, or after visiting forest trolls, paddle to the historic castle in central Örebro. Throughout its beautiful natural sur­roundings, you will find traces of Swedish history which take you back in time to the iron and mining industry, when people here lived in castles and cabins.

The city’s close proximity to nature allows you the opportunity to discover the praised wood buildings in Maria Lang’s town of Nora, the Lake Vättern’s shores in the port Askersund or why not discover Alfred Nobel’s city of Karl­skoga. Stay in hotels of the very best quality in Örebro, the county’s largest city, and enjoy the city’s wide range of fine dining and cul­ture. Explore one of Sweden’s most beautiful National Parks in Tiveden. It is mostly pathless and inaccessible but also infinitely inviting with bewitching forests, clear lakes, views and flat rocks carpeted with lichen.
