Helpfulness
The squash hall in Kungsbacka has become better and better the last couple of years. It's quite a popular place, but still not so popular that one will have problem to get a time.
There are around 12-14 bowling courses, where one can play both day- and evening. Friday and Saturday they have moonlight bowling, which cost a bit extra but is a lot of fun.
Normal days the fee is 170 SEK/hour (18 euro). Moonlight bowling costs 230-300 SEK instead.
There are also some squash courses. 80 SEK/45 minutes to rent them, and one can also borrow equipment at the place.
What I like most, but what I haven't been able to try here yet, is the golf simulator. It might feel a bit stupid to hit the golf ball into the wall five meters away, but at the same time it's a great chance to be able to play 52 famous courses over the world. At least in a simulator that is.
Cost is 200-250 SEK/hour.
This is a quite popular thing, so it could be a good idea to call and make an appointment ahead.

McDonalds: Always McDonalds...
Henrik_rrb Says: If you’re looking for cheaper food there are three McDonalds in the city. One at the shopping center Freeport outside centrum, and another two inside and outside the other shopping centre, Kungsmassan. Well, a I have never said "no" to a Big Mac Menu...
Ester: Watch out for the living moose
Henrik_rrb Says: One of the most wellknown restaurants in Kungsbacka is “Ester”. Not only for the fantastic food, but even more for the unwelcomed visitor the restaurant had a few years back. An afternoon a big moose walked into the local. Unfortunately he was way too hungry to take the...
Onsala Herrgard: Your castle on the ocean
mrbeaver Says: Everybody knows about the English Tudor-style castle just outside of Kungsbacka. It is certainly worth a tour. There is a very romantic coffee/light lunch restaurant on the facility.The important secret tip, is that the same family that built the castle built another house...
Storgarden 1: The romantic Swedish land house lunch buffet
mrbeaver Says: The minute that you walk into this beautiful 1900 wooden building, you will feel the friendliness and generosity of the Hostess/owner.Had enough of overpriced bistros? Tired of fast food? Would you like to be served rather than processed? Like to get away from loud...

Freeport: Famous brands to low prices
Henrik_rrb Says: Outside the central parts of Kungsbacka you’ll find another big shopping center, Freeport. It’s an English shopping chain, with a lot of the bigger brands like Adidas, Nike, Lewis and more and more. It's an outlet, so the prices are cheaper than in other shops, both in...
Kungsmässan: One of the biggest shopping centres in Sweden...
Henrik_rrb Says: Kungsmässan is one of the biggest shopping centers in Sweden, and gets bigger for almost every year with new shops. It’s located in the central parts of the town, easily reached by car from the highway, or by train (five minutes walk from the trainstation.)Among the hundreds...
Henrik_rrb Says: If you instead prefer to take a nice walk in the forest you should go to “Kungsbackaskogen”. It’s in the north of the city, just 15 minutes walk from the train-station. There is a path inside the forest, 2,5-3 kilometers long, where you can run for a while, or just relax and...
Henrik_rrb Says: Kungsbacka is close to the coast, and inside the city center the Kungsbacka river flows. If you’re looking to take a bath in Kattegatt, the ocean on the west side of Sweden, you’ll just have to go 7-8 kilometers south from Kungsbacka. One hour by foot, 10 minutes by car. You...

Kungsbacka is a quite big sport town, even if there aren’t even one team in the first league, in any sport, from here. But there is a tennis club, about six-seven different football clubs, two ice hockey teams, two floorball teams (one of them actually played in the first league just a few years ago) and there are also 4-5 golf courses around the city. Not to mention the dance courses, the badminton lane, mini golf, and the horse riding.
And it’s also easy to just have fun with a football game or something, without joining a club. There are plenty of fields in this city to use for free.
“Inlag” is the biggest sport centre in Kungsbacka, with two stadiums for ice hockey, a swimminghall, and close to that place eight big football fields, which for example are used by the Gothia Cup, the world’s biggest football tournament for youths, during one hot week in July.
There are two tennis halls in Kungsbacka, with 4 course indoor, and another 4 outdoor. There are also other courts in the city, but to play there you’ll have be a member.
Just remember to bring a racket, since you can’t borrow one there.

I was born in Kungsbacka and lived there until I was 28 years old, with the exception of four years. The time I've spent at other places has given me a chance to look a bit different at Kungsbacka....
I stayed here for 5 days at the start of August in 2005 at a friends house. It was mainly used as a 'base' to explore the area, as I also spent time during those five days going to Göteborg, Borås and...
