Tjolöholm castle
Turn off from the cycle trail at Torpa, south of Kungsbacka, for a look at Tjolöholm castle. This magnificent castle, which is situated by Kungsbackafjorden bay, was built in 1898 - 1904 in English Tudor style. The castle is a wonderful mixture of old-world atmosphere and new technology, advanced at the time. The area also has a church, a workers' village and a carriage museum.

Äskhult village
It is well worth making a detour to visit the village of Äskhult. An enchanting cow path takes you right into an authentic old farmhouse milieu with roots in the 17th and 18th century. Here you won't find much to remind you of the present. Old native breeds are grazing in the pasture, and in the kitchen garden you can see plant species grown here in the past.
