Day Trips Beyond Uppsala
Take a day trip and explore the outskirts of the city and all the fantastic destinations surrounding Uppsala! Enjoy a swim, hop aboard the Lennakatten heritage railway—Uppsalas take on the Hogwarts Express—or visit charming artisan villages. You can also follow in the footsteps of Carl Linnaeus and discover the nature of Uppland along the so-called Linnaeus Trails. In Gamla Uppsala, with its majestic Viking burial mounds and beautiful open-air areas, you can travel thousands of years back in time—just a short bus ride from the city center. And don’t miss the many delightful farm shops and self-pick outlets in the area, offering plenty of local delicacies and cozy cafés waiting to be explored.
