    Antikvariat Drotten

    Browse the English-language section at Antikvariat Drotten. It is a cosy second hand bookshop with around 40,000 books. During the summer season it is open until 17:00, so you have plenty of time to wander the shelves before heading out.

    Bageriet

    Walk over to Bageriet for a snack or a coffee. This daytime tapasbar and night-time pub stays open year-round. In the summer it offers nice outdoor seating on the main square, giving you a chance to settle in and watch the light change.

  3. 21:34

    Naturreservatet Södra Hällarna

    Head to Naturreservatet Södra Hällarna to watch the sunset. The sun sets toward the NW at 21:34. This nature reserve is the closest viewing spot to your starting area, making it an easy final leg of the walk.

Local tip

The sun sets toward the NW in July. Bageriet is one of the few pubs in Visby that stays open throughout the year, so it is a reliable spot for a drink regardless of the season.
