Tandem flying is an easy and wonderful way to experience the feeling of soaring high above the ground without any prior knowledge. At Skyadventures, you fly together with some of Sweden's most experienced tandem pilots, which guarantees a safe and memorable experience. The flight takes you over the scenic Hammarsbackar ridge and all the way to the historic Ale Stenar.
Flying tandem with Skyadventures gives you the opportunity to enjoy a unique bird's eye view where sea meets land in Österlen. The company's shop in Kåseberga is open all year round, and they have been offering tandem flights since 1988.

The wine festival "Smaka Svenska Viner" is a highlight that just gets better and nicer every year. This will be the 8th time we organise it. The interest in Swedish wines and in the festival is great. Many have made the festival their regular summer activity - a tradition. People stay for a long time, enjoy and socialise. Tasting wines, eating fantastic food composed by Tareq Taylor, taking a crash course in wine tasting, learning a little about how to grow grapes or just having a nice summer day at one of the most beautiful vineyards in Österlen.
You will be welcomed in the lavender field, where we will tell you the history of lavender and give you some nice growing tips. We offer a sparkling lavender drink (non-alcoholic) or a glass of sparkling wine of Cuvée Carl-Otto, from Köpingsberg's vineyard. You pick a large bouquet of lavender and then end the morning with a sandwich and our award-winning lavender ice cream.
Discover Österlen by pedalling a trolley and experience Skåne's beautiful landscape in a unique and environmentally friendly way.

A perfect activity for the whole family, where each trip offers unforgettable nature scenes and great exercise.
Experience Sweden's most beautiful railway with steam trains between Brösarp and St Olof in Österlen. Since 1971, these historic trains have chugged through the hills of Brösarp, along the clear blue waters of Hanö Bay, across harvest-ripe fields and through deep beech forests. The Skånska Järnvägar museum association preserves and develops this museum railway, and offers a nostalgic journey back to a time when people travelled on wooden benches and the engine driver was every child's idol. A fantastic experience for the whole family!
A market for the whole family - free admission and free parking Kiviks Marknad is Sweden's largest and most popular market. Between 120 - 150,000 people visit our historic market every year. Kivik's Market is a tradition that has been going on for generations and which we will continue together with you. At Kivik's market you will find stalls selling everything from curios to food and lots of fairground attractions from Scandinavia's largest travelling fairground - Axels tivoli.
