Life with that little extra
A richer life—every day
In Helsingborg, the sea, nature, culture and city life are always close at hand. There’s no shortage of things to do—from morning dips and bike rides to concerts, dinners out and spontaneous trips across the Öresund.
Sofiero Palace and Gardens
A short trip north takes you to Sofiero—one of Europe’s most beautiful parks. Wander among blooming rhododendrons, enjoy the sea views or have lunch in a palace setting. Just as magical all year round.
Culture that moves you
Helsingborg offers a rich cultural scene. Experience world-class symphonies at the Concert Hall with the Helsingborg Symphony Orchestra, theatre and musicals at the City Theatre, or live concerts at The Tivoli.
At Dunkers Kulturhus, you’ll find exhibitions, art and activities for all ages. At Fredriksdal Museums and Gardens, history, nature and open-air theatre come together in a unique setting.
Year-round golf season
Play golf in beautiful natural surroundings—often with views of the Öresund. With some of Sweden’s best courses and season that stretches through much of the year, Helsingborg is a natural choice for golf lovers.
Tura—a classic Öresund experience
Hop on the ferry and enjoy a trip across the Öresund strait without even stepping off. Eat well, enjoy live music and feel like you’ve travelled on any normal day.
Beach life beyond summer
From the central beach with palm trees to long sandy stretches north and south of the city, the sea is always close by in Helsingborg. Take a morning dip, an evening walk, or enjoy the summer buzz along the seafront at one of the many restaurants. Dinner at sunset is a classic. And when the seasons change, the coastline is still just as much a part of everyday life.
Cold-water swimming and bathhouses
Swimming year-round is a natural part of life here. In Helsingborg, there are three bathhouses where you can combine a sauna with refreshing dips in the Öresund—whatever the season. Step straight from the sauna into the sea for a moment of both energy and calm.
Cycle the coast
Two of Sweden’s most scenic cycle routes—Kattegattleden and Sydkustleden—start here. Add an extensive network of bike paths, and you’re set for both everyday travel and adventure.
A taste of Skåne
Helsingborg has a vibrant restaurant scene where local ingredients meet creative cuisine—from fine dining to relaxed neighbourhood spots. Always close, always worth a detour.
Terra Skåne
Just outside Helsingborg is one of Sweden’s emerging wine regions. Terra Skåne and the local vineyards offer a close-up look at Skåne’s wine production—take part in a tasting, visit farm shops and enjoy the unique combination of local ingredients, craftsmanship and passion.
Shopping for every style
Stroll through the charming streets of the city centre or head to Väla, one of Sweden’s top shopping centres. In both, you’ll find everything from unique boutiques to well-known brands.
Minutes to the continent
In just 20 minutes, you’re in Denmark. Take a spontaneous trip to Helsingør, continue on to the Louisiana museum, or simply enjoy a day of Danish “hygge.” With the continent so close, it quickly becomes part of everyday life.
