Bohus Path Section 2
Stensjön - Skatås

Walk in a beautiful manor house setting

The section starts by the beautiful Gunnebo House and Gardens, between Rådasjön and Stensjön. Gunnebo House was built in the 18th century as an exclusive summer residence for John Hall, a wealthy merchant from Gothenburg. It is now a popular place to visit all year round. It is one of Sweden's best and purest examples of neoclassical architecture. Experience some real history on a guided tour of the house. In the summer you can also watch theatre here. Gunnebo Kaffehus och Krog serves delicious food made from ingredients sourced in the organic kitchen garden.

Discover the Delsjö area

The path crosses the lake of Norra Långevattnet, just north of Stensjön. There is a nice rest area here with beautiful views of the lake. The section then continues to the Delsjö nature reserve, one of the largest and most central natural areas near Gothenburg. By the Skatås exercise centre there are a number of exercise paths, a café and the Delsjö area nature hall, which highlights the biodiversity and management of the area. As well as fine tracks and paths, you’ll find accommodation at Lisebergsbyn, canoeing excursions and swimming in the Delsjö lakes and frisbee golf and beach volleyball. The western parts of the Delsjö area have many remains, so there is also a lot of interesting history to discover here. A short deviation from the path takes you to Stora Torp, a private stone castle from 1871 located in a beautiful area.
