1. Sofiero Palace
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 661 reviews
Sofiero Palace was, until the 1970s, a summer residence for Swedish royalty. The magnificent heritage of thousands of rhododendrons, beds, borders and kitchen gardens is carefully tended by a team of dedicated experts. In 2010, Sofiero was voted Europe’s Best Park.Sofiero is situated just north of the town of Helsingborg in southern Sweden. Interesting exhibitions in the palace and a variety of exciting events and activities in the beautiful park and gardens are some of the things you can look forward to when planning your visit. The season, during which the palace, shops, restaurant and café are open for visitors, starts March 31 and ends in September. However, you are welcome to visit Sofiero for a guided tour, a walk in the park and a chance to enjoy the view over the strait of Öresund to Denmark at any time of the year.

Sofiero is a great place to visit for the formal gardens, especially in the spring for the rhododendrons and in the autumn for the ljusstämning (where the grounds are open at night with all the paths lit by candles.)

In Pålsjö forest you can walk along a network of trails among old beech, oak and alder trees. Pålsjöbäcken stream winds through the area down to the pond at the Pålsjö mill.

It’s one of my favourite places in Helsingborg. Just a few minutes walk in the city and you're one with nature. Amazing walking paths with little spots where you can take a break, sit on a bench and overlook the Oresund river and just admire the sheer beauty around you.
5. Karnan – the keep of Helsingborg
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 534 reviews
The Karnan tower is a place to visit for the whole family. In the beautiful Slottshagsparken above Terasstrapporna in the centre of Helsingborg you’ll find the medieval Karnan castle tower. Karnan is about 35 metres high and it’s worth every single step up the stairs to reach the top and enjoy the magnificent views over the harbour, Oresund and Helsingor. There is a long and adventurous, rather narrow spiral staircase leading to the top, but the stunning view makes it worth the effort. The Karnan tower was built in the early 1300s. The tower was part of a major castle site that had the status of “riksborg” (national castle) in the medieval and early Danish empire. Nowadays, it is the symbol and brand of the city of Helsingborg.

The ferries on Øresund provides an excellent service to all of our guests, and the shortest way from Denmark to Sweden. The crossing only takes 20 minutes!

They changed name to ForSea. In Helsingborg, they depart right next to the train station. Only 10 EUR back and forth for the 1/2 h ride to experience the quaint Helsingor city in Denmark for shopping, great danish sandwiches (smorrebrod) and take a tour to the Kronborg castle. All within walking distance. Departures are several per hour, every 20 min or so. There is a short tax free shopping time slot while at sea. Lots of nice areas to hang out on the ferries, inside and outside. Do check what documents are needed to enter Denmark now in Corona times before you go (ok, worst case you just take the ferry back).

Gröningen is a lively recreation area in central Helsingborg, perfect for hang-outs on sunny days. Vast green areas for picnic or sports, an outdoor gym, a pirate playground and a large wooden deck where you can enjoy the sun or the crowd. You'll find many great spots for a swim in the sound, and nice restaurants and bars along the boardwalk.
