Nature and attractions Österlen
Degeberga and Österlen offer some of Skåne's most beautiful nature experiences and most popular excursion destinations. Here you will find hiking trails, ravines, waterfalls, castles, churches and miles of sandy beaches. Whether you are looking for an active holiday or quiet days in a natural environment, there are attractions for all tastes.
Degeberga Local History Park
An obvious destination during your stay is Degeberga Hembygdspark. It is one of Skåne's largest homestead parks with well-preserved buildings and living cultural history. It offers guided tours that tell the story of life in the area in the past, and the park is also used for events and markets. The lush green environment makes the park a popular place for both culture lovers and families with children who want to discover something new.
Forsakarsravinen and Forsakarsfallen
Just a short walk from the holiday village is Forsakarsravinen, one of Degeberga's most famous nature areas. Here you are greeted by lush forests, quiet streams and Skåne's highest waterfall - Forsakarsfallen. The area is a nature reserve with marked trails and information boards, making it easy to experience both the tranquillity of nature and its dramatic forces. Forsakar is an attraction in Österlen that attracts visitors all year round and is just as beautiful during the spring greenery as during the winter frost.
Brösarp slopes and Kivik
The proximity to Österlen's classic attractions makes the stay in Degeberga extra valuable. In just a short drive you can reach Brösarp's slopes, the rolling landscape that has become a symbol for the whole of Österlen. It's the perfect place to hike, take photos and enjoy the magnificent views. Kivik is home to the annual Kivik market in July and the popular apple market in September. Kivik is also home to the musterium, which offers both tastings and guided tours.
Linderödsåsen and Skåneleden
For those looking for nature experiences on foot, Linderödsåsen is right next door. The unspoilt nature of the ridge offers deep forests, moorland and a rich wildlife. The Skåneleden trail, one of Sweden's best-known hiking trails, also passes through here. The trail is divided into several stages and provides the opportunity to explore Skåne's diverse landscape up close. For many, this is one of the most memorable sights in Österlen.
Castles and churches in the neighbourhood
Historic buildings abound in the Degeberga neighbourhood. Among the closest castles are Vittskövle Castle and Maltesholm Castle, both dating back to the Renaissance. A little further away are Christinehof and Kronovall castles in Österlen, two popular destinations for those who want to combine cultural history with beautiful walks in the castle parks. The churches in the area are also well worth a visit. Many villages have their own well-preserved churches that tell the story of the area and its history.
The beaches of Hanö Bay
For those who love the sea, Hanöbukten's miles of sandy beaches are one of the most popular attractions in Österlen. The beaches stretch out just a few kilometres from Degeberga and offer fine-grained white sand, sheltering pine forests and plenty of space even in the summer months. The nearest beaches are Olseröd beach, Rigeleje, Juleboda, Friseboda and Furuboda. Here you can spend whole days sunbathing, swimming and relaxing. The beach is recognised as one of Sweden's best, making it an ideal destination for families and nature lovers alike.
