Nordanaparken

Reviewed By Leeanne G - Halkidiki Region, Greece

Nordanaparken is a very scenic cultural park and recreational park close to the city centre. The Skelleftea museum sits inside this park but there is a lot more to see than just the museum. The area has many culturally significant buildings including Nyborg which was a residence built in 1764. The park has great play areas for children plus duck ponds and in winter a nice skating rink is laid.

Solbacken Handelsomrade

Solbacken trading area located 3 kilometers north of Skelleftea center. It is Sweden's first and Europe's only shopping center built entirely of wood. Here are 23 stores over an area of 35 000 square meters. Location along the E4 highway and close to the city has made Solbacken into an attractive retail for both high-volume retail and clothing.

This is not an interesting point to visit. It is a normal shopping area, like any other in Sweden. You can find everything here: electronic stuff, plants, things for pets, shoes, construction material, etc.

Skelleftea Adventure Park

Reviewed By Ana L - Boliden, Sweden

I went on a business trip with my section, and we spent the whole afternoon/evening there. First, the activity on the trees, then the dinner, and finally, the sauna and hot tub. The area is very beautiful, and the staff is very kind. It is a funny day for the whole family.

Lejonstromsbron

Reviewed By JonDoe04134 - Lidingo, Sweden

The longest wooden bridge in Sweden, from the first half of the 18th century. A very pretty landmark of the city. Makes a perfect destination for a walk from the centre, through Nordanå, Bonnstan and back along the other bank of the river.

Marranasvaltan

Reviewed By Christina_Soldan - Skelleftea, Sweden

Mäktigt naturfenomen som är ett resultat av inlandsisens avsmältning. Då forslades enorma massor sand, grus och sten med isälvarna ned mot kusten. En ca 160 meter lång och 30 meter djup ravin som fortsätter att växa bakåt i västligt riktning och som närmar sig vägen mellan Fällfors och Norrlångträsk.
Mycket uppskattad familjeutflykt, lika kul för både småbarn och tonåringar. Det är en stor utmaning att rulla sig i sanden eller att ta sig på andra sidan. Ta med allt för att grilla, något att dricka och extra kläder och skor. Det blir en hel del sand i bilen annars. Myggmedel är ett måste på sommaren.
Underbar naturupplevelse! Rekommenderas varmt!

Bonnstan

Reviewed By JonDoe04134 - Lidingo, Sweden

A typical Northern church town, a walk there is like a trip back in time. One of the few that remain. In winter it had the feel of a dead ghost town from an old Western. Beautiful and definitely a must in Skellefteå.

Discgolf Terminalen

Reviewed By Tobias_Pahlberg - Skelleftea, Sweden

This is a nice attraction if you like the concept of golf but want something more easily accessable and less expensive. At the moment the course has 29 "holes" and they are about 60-200m long each. It costs 50 kr for a day-pass and you can rent a disc quite cheap. It takes about 2 hours for 4 people to go around 18 holes which is quite appropriate. Just remember to bring some mosquito-repellent if you are there in the evenings in the summer. The shop is open between 12:00-21:00 I think.

Skelleftea Museum

Reviewed By Leeanne G - Halkidiki Region, Greece

The main building of the museum is a school house built in the Swedish mansion style from 1916. The building contains the Skelleftea museum, Skelleftea Art gallery, museum Anna Nordlander Art Gallery plus the Meijer collection. Inside there is also a really nice coffee shop. The museum is free but I do suggest if you do not read Swedish hire the audio guide as there is very little written in anything other than Swedish. Well worth the visit.
