Hotels in Kalmar County, Sweden
Kalmar County is a region on Sweden's southeast coast, known for its medieval Kalmar Castle and the glassblowing studios in the 'Kingdom of Crystal.' Winters are cold, with snow perfect for cross-country skiing through the forests, while summers are mild and sunny-ideal for cycling across the flat landscapes of Öland island. You can tour the castle's 16th-century halls in any season, but visit in June for the Kalmar Union Festival or in August to watch glassblowers at work in factories like Kosta Boda.
