What to expect
Kungsklyftan is a dramatic gorge in Fjällbacka, Sweden, located in the Vetteberget mountain. The gorge is over 200 meters long and several meters deep, and is also known as the 'King's Crevice' due to a visit by King Oscar II in 1887. The gorge is a popular hiking spot, with a path that climbs steadily and leads over loose rubble and rocks, and offers stunning views of the surrounding archipelago. Visitors can also explore the nearby town of Fjällbacka, which has become famous through Camilla Läckberg's series on the Fjällbacka murders, and enjoy the charming harbor, restaurants, and cafes. The gorge is not suitable for wheelchairs, walkers, or prams due to the stairs and stony path. Families with children can enjoy the hike and the scenic views, but should be aware of the potential dangers and take necessary precautions
