Summer in Gothenburg

Would you like to try something new during your vacation? Seize the opportunity and combine a city experience with sun and sea bathing.

Gothenburg has much to offer and discover. Visit the Botanical Garden, enjoy the cozy cafes in Haga, attend the Opera, and indulge in shopping! But perhaps the most beautiful attraction is the stunning archipelago.

In Gothenburg, you'll find everything from large shopping centers to small independent shops. If you're interested in interior design, there's plenty to explore around Magasinsgatan, with stores like Artilleriet and Norrgavel within a short walking distance. Gothenburg is perhaps best known for its selection of fresh fish and seafood, so be sure to enjoy the delicacies of the sea either with us or at one of the city's many delightful restaurants. For a more relaxed experience, we recommend taking a stroll in Haga, where you can stop at one of the charming cafes or visit Trädgårdsföreningen, boasting one of Northern Europe's finest rose gardens, where 2,500 roses of 1,200 different species bloom during the summer.

Explore the Archipelago

Our central location by the water provides the perfect base for exploring the archipelago. From Stenpiren, boat lines 281 and 282 depart to the southern islands of the archipelago. The entire route from Stenpiren - Styrsö - Donsö - Vrångö takes about 1 hour and 35 minutes. These islands are perfect for hiking along charming gravel roads, cycling tours, or simply enjoying the tranquility. Styrsö has several beautiful beaches, cozy cafes, and restaurants, while Donsö stands out with its lively harbor life and traditional fishing boats.

Gothenburg's archipelago offers a range of exciting opportunities for both nature lovers and fishermen. A very popular activity is seal safaris, where visitors can join guided boat tours for the chance to see seals in their natural habitat. It's a fantastic opportunity to explore the rich wildlife and scenic beauty that the archipelago has to offer.

For those who enjoy fishing, there are plenty of adventures to be had. Guided fishing trips offer the chance to try your hand at catching mackerel, a popular and tasty fish abundant in these waters. Crab fishing is another popular and engaging activity, especially suitable for families, where participants can catch crabs directly from the cliffs or from a boat.


NATURE EXPERIENCES IN THE CITY

Gothenburg is renowned for its beautiful and diverse nature, and during your weekend at Hotel Riverton, you'll have the chance to explore the city's many green spaces and parks. Here are some of the scenic places you can visit to take a break from the city's hustle and bustle and enjoy fresh air and greenery:

  • Trädgårdsföreningen - Located in the heart of Gothenburg, Trädgårdsföreningen is one of Europe's best-preserved 19th-century parks. Here, you can stroll among beautiful flower arrangements, visit the Rose Garden, or relax in the picturesque Palm House.
  • Slottsskogen - Slottsskogen is Gothenburg's largest park and offers a variety of activities for the whole family. Here, you can visit animals at the children's zoo, hike through forests and meadows, or visit the city's observatory and natural history museum.

NORDIC'S LARGEST AMUSEMENT PARK

One of Gothenburg's most popular destinations during the summer season is Liseberg, one of Europe's premier amusement parks. Here, visitors can experience thrilling rides, beautiful gardens, and entertainment suitable for the whole family. Please note that Liseberg has a limited number of places in the park, which means you must pre-book your day and buy a ticket online on Liseberg's own website.


In summary, Gothenburg is a city that truly comes alive in the summer, with something to offer for all tastes and interests. Whether you're here to explore the city's culture, relax in nature, or simply enjoy the Scandinavian summer sun, Gothenburg is a destination that won't disappoint.
