The town consists of a cobblestone main street lined with cafés and shops selling polkagrisar in every flavour you can think of (my favorite is the salty liquorice one!) Many shops have display windows to the kitchen, meaning you can stand in the shop and watch the entire cooking process – from sugar dough to candy stick. Every shop will say that they are the original inventor, but I guess no one really knows who that is. Tips! If you have a day to spare you should go on a day-trip to Visingsö, the small island in the middle of lake Vättern. The boat to Visingsö departs from Gränna.

At the end of May, the ground is covered in wild garlic. The smell is just amazing! However, it is not allowed to pick any. You can find great accommodation on both AirBnb and booking.com. If you plan to camp, make sure to read about the freedom to roam. The freedom to roam is the principle, protected by the law, that gives all people the right to roam free in nature. However, you can’t do whatever you want or sleep wherever you want – so please do your research.
