Balance archipelagos, forest cabins, and design-forward city life of Sweden
Visit Stockholm, Sweden's capital spread across 14 islands. Explore the Vasa Museum (home to the remarkably preserved 17th-century warship that sank on its maiden voyage), stroll through Gamla Stan (the medieval old town with cobblestone streets and the Royal Palace), and see the modern art at Fotografiska (a photography museum in a former customs house with panoramic views).
Visit Malmö, Sweden's third-largest city, located across the Öresund Strait from Copenhagen. Explore the Turning Torso (a 190-meter-tall twisting skyscraper, Scandinavia's tallest residential building), stroll through the historic Gamla Staden (Old Town) with its cobblestone streets and Malmöhus Castle (a 16th-century fortress housing museums), and relax at Ribersborgsstranden (a long sandy beach with a popular open-air bathhouse).
Visit Gothenburg, Sweden's second-largest city on the west coast. Explore the Universeum science center (with a rainforest and aquarium), stroll through the Haga district (historic wooden houses and cafes), see the Gothenburg Museum of Art (Nordic and European masterpieces), and ride the Liseberg amusement park (one of Scandinavia's largest with roller coasters and gardens).
Wild camping in Sweden is generally allowed and encouraged under the Allemansrätten (Right of Public Access), letting you pitch a tent for a night or two in most natural areas, as long as you stay away from homes (at least 150m), avoid private gardens, cultivated land, nature reserves, and don't disturb anyone or destroy nature. So grab your tent, bivvy bag or hammock and find a remote location to sleep for the night
