Höga Kusten (High Coast) Bridge & UNESCO Wilderness Half-Day

Journey north to the spectacular High Coast — a UNESCO World Heritage landscape of dramatic sea cliffs and ancient islets — anchored by Sweden's longest suspension bridge soaring 130 m above the Ångerman River. Pure Scandinavian grandeur.

What to expect

Your private vehicle departs the port and heads north along the Gulf of Bothnia coast, arriving at the iconic Höga Kusten Bridge after about 45 minutes. Walk the pedestrian path above the churning river for vertiginous views of the High Coast's ancient bedrock — some of the world's most pronounced post-glacial land uplift. Your guide explains the geological drama unfolding beneath your feet before continuing to a coastal viewpoint over the archipelago. A stop at a local bakery or café en route adds a taste of authentic Norrland life. Return is timed comfortably to your all-aboard.
