The North side is more like the mainland with some woods and fields. It is a popular vacationspot for the Swedish. But we going there way out off season didn't notice any off it. Just as well.
Overall impression is that is very different from the mainland. Wel worth a visit though but only by your own car i think.

Once across that 6km bridge you have about 400 windmills around the island of Oland to see! Im rather partial to windmills and just in a half an hour drive I came across about 15 and they were not all the same design!
Theres a lighthouse at each end of the island ie North and South ends. and there is a huge castle, though in ruins, but its a castle and its well regarded for visiting at the main town of Oland.
Plus there are beaches - with roads the full length of the island you can go for it! Leave a Comment

Get a map of the town from the tourist office in the bus terminal. Unfortunately the site is neither on that map nor on the larger one posted at the edge of the bus parking area. Leave a Comment

An interesting day trip from Kalmar is to Oland Island. Due to the limited winter bus schedule I only visited Borgholm. The castle is in ruins, although a large part still stands. A interesting art exhibit was there when I visited. Starting from the original 12th C castle, there was a series of extensions and improvements to the 15th C. There was major damage during the Kalmar War of 1611-1613 with Denmark. The castle is about 2 km south of Borgholm. Proceed along Slottsgatan, which becomes Akerhagsvagen. A sign on the right indicates the footpath to the castle. This segment (800 m) is a pleasant, climbing walk through a forest. In returning take the path to leading to the coast, ending at the beach in Borgholm. Get a map of the town from the tourist office in the bus terminal. Leave a Comment
