We walked here from the beach. A beautiful beach with a long jetty, restrooms, and places to relax. We also did a short 1 km loop. Ample parking is also available.

A very interesting place with great atmosphere, an old railroad bridge now cycle path. The site of the former fortress Piksborg is also interesting.

At Byholma old station, the host couple Michael and Evelyn meet you. The host couple has a German background and serves alternating Swedish and German home cooking. Moose meat is always on the menu - how about a delicious moose burger or moose pizza? Of course, there are also fantastic Belgian waffles and ice cream here. Byholma old station is the perfect stop when cycling around Banvallsleden or Bolmen.
