A beautiful day, not too hot, perfect for walking. I’ve been longing for some seaside views, so I revisited G\u00e5l\u00f6<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Last time we did a 4.5 km circuit along Havtornsudd, a long, skinny spit of land at the very tip of G\u00e5l\u00f6. I wanted more walking than that today, so I did the Greater G\u00e5l\u00f6 Circuit, which covers that shorter circuit and adds more to it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Havtornsudd was by far the most interesting part of the walk. The rest was kind of just additional kilometres. Nothing wrong with it – but there also wasn’t anything in particular to recommend it. Forest, trees, path.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After a while I reached G\u00e5l\u00f6 camping and the familiar paths around Havtornsudd. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The path goes all the way around the peninsula, hugging the shoreline, so there’s plenty of lovely views. Lots of open air, lovely little islets, boats passing by.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When the path goes slightly inland, you can mostly ignore it and scramble along the cliffs to still get the lovely views.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The tip of the peninsula is all high cliffs, with plenty of flattish bits for sitting down, for a perfect picnic with boat-watching. There were loads of boats passing by in all directions.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The way back was less scenic. On this side of the peninsula, the views were just of flat open water. For an optimal experience here, I think I’d skip the longer trail and just walk the Havtornsudd circuit, and do it counter-clockwise to get past the less exciting parts first.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After leaving Havtornsudd, the trail was much less well marked. Occasionally I lost it entirely when it branched, or became invisible on open rocky ground. There was no risk of getting lost, though – just follow the seashore.<\/p>\n
