About this tour
This session walks Slottsparken, the park surrounding Malmöhus Castle. You see the paths laid out around the castle's original moat and the wider green space kept intact so close to the centre. Gustav treats it as a calmer follow-up to his castle session.
He moves at a relaxed pace through the park, since there is no fixed route required. Questions about the park's design come up occasionally, and he answers briefly before continuing the walk.
This suits anyone wanting an easy, outdoor session after a busier walk through the city. It also suits anyone who enjoyed Gustav's castle session and wants to see the grounds around it properly.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included
- Internet connection
- Travel to the city
Itinerary
-
Welcome and sound check 5 min
The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Malmö before heading out.
-
Park paths 15 min
The camera follows the paths through Slottsparken, and I point out how the park was laid out around the castle's original moat and grounds.
-
Green space kept intact 15 min
Further into the park, I explain why this much green space survived so close to the city centre, largely because the castle needed the land left open around it.
-
Your questions 7 min
Time to ask anything about Malmö: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Pickled herring (inlagd sill) and Limhamn, worth a slower look.
Good to know

- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 10 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
