Stages 1 and 2 #hikinghultsfred The Lönneberga Trail

This trail crosses the northernmost part of municipality and conn- ects the East Coast Trail with Sevedeleden. The Lönneberga Trail belongs to ’s network of lowland trails and is therefore marked in orange. We have divided it into five different stages (totalling some 60 km) and added 2 extra stretches, together about 20 km. For the most part, the trail is easy to walk, and if you want to spend the night along the way, there are windbreaks at reason- able intervals, as well as hostels and hotels. Walking the entire trail is a great experience, familiarising you with Småland’s richness of nature, culture and history. The Lönneberga Trail offers you a num- ber of fine lookouts and on the way, you will also come across many historical environments and ancient monuments.
