About the trail
An early start is recommended on Kullaleden from Kärnan in Helsingborg through the beautiful City Park, along the coast to Höganäs. You will catch the morning glow on the large ships going through Öresund. In the beginning, as you walk along Helsingborg’s plateau (Landborgen), its old town stretches out below. With views across Öresund as a backdrop, the trail weaves its way through well-kept gardens and the beech forest of Pålsjöskog down to the sea beyond Sofiero Palace.

Inspiration for excursions
On the northern side from Svanshall to Arild, the trail winds its way through forest and heathland passing lakes of water lilies (popular site for weddings) and the small harbour in Bökebäck. Pack you picnic lunch in Svanshall and continue into the woods.
Every now and again, the curtain of trees opens up towards Skälderviken and you see Hallands Väderö island and Torekov. Take a break at the stone quarry. Are the water lilies in full bloom?
