Skåne Travel: Øresund Bridge Lookout: Swedish Side!

The Øresund (or in Swedish, Öresund) Bridge is the one tourist attraction which I've been wanting to see in the flesh ever since I watched The Bridge (Bron/Broen) (2011-2018) - it's almost embarrassing to admit, but I learned the most about Swedish geography (prior to exchange of course), from watching the series compared to, say, studying maps. 
Check out the incredible view!

Gorgeous flora!
Visiting the Øresund Bridge is best done in summer since the coastal area is pretty windy and there are some brilliant flowering plants along the walking/cycling path. It's such a beautiful place to go and there is a small beach area close by to the lookout as well.

How to get there:
  1. From Lund C, catch the train (preferably the Öresundståg just because it's faster) to Malmö C.
  2. From Malmö C, transfer from train to Bus and catch (green) city bus 8 to Malmö Bellevueallen.
  3. From Malmö Bellevueallen (same station) catch bus 34 to Malmö Sibbarps camping (because this area is where a large caravan park). 
  4. Walk to Luftkastellet - there are stairs to the right of the restaurant entrance (really obvious, you'll know where you area) which takes you do a raised platform / lookout area. 
Note: To the right there is a concrete stairway leading down to the coastal path where you can view the base of the Bridge :)
