Leave only footprints / Lämna bara fotspår

A sunny and windless day without a cloud in sight. We are going on a spontaneous trip to a near and new place. The desire to discover and explore can be so stimulating.  From the Nils Ericson terminal we leave with bus 291 towards Gothenburg's northern archipelago and get off at Hönö Pinan harbour. We walk along the northern part of Hönö until we reach Ramleberget. Here the scenery is beautiful and dramatic. Where we walk, climb and jump over stones and rocks we are reminded about traces and stories of the Bronze Age. So amazing that nature has saved those memories. Against a rock wall we eat lunch and enjoy the silence and the views. On our way back we walk through the Ersdalen nature reserve on the northwestern Hönö, a green beautiful contrast to the rocky Ramleberget. Since Hönö is quite big, there are thoughts about returning here to the southern parts like Hönö Klåva. Best to take our walking shoes that time as well. 🙏 For more information about Hönö En solig och vindstill...

Wind beneath my wings / Vind under mina vingar

Vinga is located at the far western end of the archipelago. One could reach here by boat in one and a half hours from Stenpiren. The magic about Vinga is that its almost always good weather out there. Here is remarkable nature and the surroundings are very peaceful and silent. The island is quite small so one can walk around the island or why not visit the lighthouse and enjoy the view. Its also easy to fall asleep resting on a blanket while listening to the waves as they hit the rocks. I think that this could probably be the simplest, most effective and beautiful way to enjoy nature and truly be one with it. 🙏 For more information about Vinga Vinga ligger vid skärgårdens yttersta västra ände. Man kan nå hit med båt som tar en och en halv timme från Stenpiren. Det magiska med Vinga är att det nästan alltid är bra väder där ute. Här är anmärkningsvärd natur och omgivningen är mycket fridfull och tyst. Ön är ganska liten så man kan gå runt ön eller varför inte besöka fyren och njuta ...
