Cycling on Gotland

Gotland has been a cycling paradise since the 70’s, when Ulf Lundell’s debut novel Jack got almost the entire Swedish people to go on a cycling holiday. The term “cycling on Gotland” became a concept and there are still many people who get a dreamy look in their eyes when you mention Gotland and cycling in the same sentence.

We also wanted to get that dreamy look and hired two cycles. And let me tell you, Gotland is not so flat as one would think. But nice, beautiful sea-views and lovely countryside. We went to a place called Lickershamn, that sports a rock-formation called “Raukas” that can be found on Gotland. These sea-stacks are vertical rock formations, formed by wave erosion. Impressive!

After a 7 hour trip we can report that were very tired and had that dreamy look and a couple of sore bottoms!
