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.

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:
- From Lund C, catch the train (preferably the Öresundståg just because it's faster) to Malmö C.
- From Malmö C, transfer from train to Bus and catch (green) city bus 8 to Malmö Bellevueallen.
- From Malmö Bellevueallen (same station) catch bus 34 to Malmö Sibbarps camping (because this area is where a large caravan park).
- 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 :)
