Enjoy the cycling trip between Växjö and Tingsryd along winding forest roads. Experience the beautiful Småland nature as you roll towards Tingsryd.

The start/finish of Sydostleden in Växjö is the travel center. The city has about 66,000 inhabitants today.

In Växjö, nature is always close, you can for example fish in the city-near lake Växjösjön. Along the trail you will find a number of attractions, such as Teleborg Castle, the Swedish Glass Museum and the House of Emigrants. When you are at Ekotemplet, Växjö's water tower, you have reached Sydostleden's highest point 203 meters above sea level.

Did you know that in Växjö's oldest pastry shop, Broqvist's pastry shop, the Napoleon cake was "born" almost 150 years ago?

Cycle on winding forest roads and experience the Småland nature down to Tingsryd. Take a dip in one of the many lakes, if you are lucky you might get to glimpse an elk or a deer.
