Sweden: Gothenburg, Halmstad and Malmö + 2 more

A road trip through Gothenburg, Halmstad and Malmö + 2 more, 5 stops in Sweden.

Gothenburg, Sweden's second city, sits on the west coast where the Göta älv river meets the sea. Halmstad is a coastal city in southern Sweden with deep historical roots and a character shaped by its position on the Kattegat strait. Malmö is Sweden's third-largest city and the capital of Malmö Municipality, situated in the southernmost region of the country. Växjö is a city of roughly 71,000 people in southern Sweden, serving as the cultural and administrative heart of the Kronoberg region.

Why it works

Rather than one city, this threads Gothenburg, Halmstad and Malmö and more into a single trip, so you see more of Sweden in one go. Spend longest wherever suits you.
