Birding near Gothenburg? (2 Viewers)

[gmkirk130]

My family and I are going to Sweden this summer and will be spending some time around Gothenburg. Are there any particularly good places to go birding near there?

Thank you in advance,
Gary

I've not been to Western Sweden but I know there's a Gothenburg Birdwatching Soc - I wonder if it's possible to Google/Facebook them and ask for gen?..

Do you have any target species for the visit?

Getterön in the city of Varberg is one of the best birding locations on the swedish west coast. Naturen är ett äventyr och det börjar här - Naturum Getterön

Torslandaviken is probably the best birding location located in the city Torslandaviken | Föreningen Torslandavikens Naturreservat (FTN)

Thank you all for the replies and good ideas, and, no, I don’t have any specific target species. I’m new at this so thought I’d just like to go to where a large number of different species congregate.

Gary
