Discover Småland
Småland is forests, meadows, pastures, and shimmering lakes. The forests stretch for miles and invite you to hike, pick mushrooms and berries. Here, you can experience absolute silence, only interrupted by birdsong and possibly the tread of the king of the forest – the moose. This is where Emil of Lönneberga (that boy Emil) and The Children of Noisy Village lived their lives in Astrid Lindgren’s books. The red cottages and fields look exactly as they did then. Welcome!
