Getting here & travelling around

PLAN A SUSTAINABLE TRIP!
Åsnen in Southern Sweden is a nature destination worth experiencing. In an increasingly climate-conscious society, sustainable destinations, as well as the ways of travelling there, are of utmost importance. It is easy and convenient to travel by air or by car, but travelling with public transport will turn your Åsnen visit into a completely unforgettable, more sustainable adventure.

TRAVEL BY TRAIN
Travelling by train is both fast, convenient and perhaps the most environmentally friendly choice of all. You can reach the Åsnen area by train from Malmö, Gothenburg, Stockholm and Copenhagen in about 2-4 hours.

The railway station in Alvesta is a hub for railway traffic and is located about 15 km from the Åsnen area. Rent a bike that you pick up in central Alvesta, for example through RentBike, and cycle to Åsnen along the car-free Banvallsleden cycling trail. It is of course also possible to travel on by bus or rental car from Alvesta, for those who wish.

Växjö railway station and Älmhult railway station are also great starting points for your Åsnen adventures. You can contact a tourist information to receive more tips.
