Lean-to single track Hallandsleden
Listening to the crackle of an open fire and looking out over a beautiful dusky landscape is a magical experience. Whether you want to sleep in a lean-to or just pop yourself down to grill a few sausages, Falkenberg has loads of great places to choose from.
The Hallandsleden trail stretches across the entire region of Halland, from Laholm in the south to Kungsbacka in the north. In Falkenberg it even has a double track so you can take a walk around Falkenberg (also passes through the municipalities of Varberg and Halmstad). There are five lean-to’s in Falkenberg to rest in along the Hallandsleden trail. Read on for a description to make it easier for you to plan your trip. A good tip is to walk there and back a bit for a shorter trip, or just head over here for a quick picnic.
