Trädgårdsresan
Gothenburg
Do you enjoy wandering among greenhouses, floral arrangements, sculptures, and a living green cultural heritage? In West Sweden, countless beautiful gardens await—ranging from grand manor parks to small, secluded garden gems. Trädgårdsresan is a collective map that guides garden enthusiasts to delightful greenery and innovative plant design.
Many green oases
Trädgårdsresan (The Garden Journey) serves as a guide to a wide variety of garden experiences throughout West Sweden. Discover the small, cosy gardens that most people miss, and visit the truly elegant, beautifully designed gardens where plants become vibrant works of art. Looking for inspiration for a road trip through selected gardens? The website offers eleven ready-made suggestions for self-guided tours.
You can also create your own road trip. Perhaps visit Lundens Trädgård in Älekulla and enjoy the dahlias, or join a garden walk at Morlanda Säteri on the island of Orust. Stop by the Garden Society of Gothenburg with its fantastic rose festival, or take a trip to the Little Castle Garden at Läckö Castle by Lake Vänern. The possibilities are endless.
Historic sites and rewarding meetings
There are many historical gardens in West Sweden, often tucked away in traditional settings such as apple orchards, rose gardens or kitchen gardens. The Garden Journey guides you to accommodation, good restaurants and cafés and rewarding meetings with dedicated gardeners, who always have a lot of knowledge to pass on and enjoy doing it. You can also draw up your own garden journey through any number of gardens and beautiful rural areas, with only your time as a limit.
