About The Port Of Sundsvall
Sundsvall sits along Sweden's High Coast on the Gulf of Bothnia, a region known for its dramatic post-glacial rebound landscape of rocky islands and forested shoreline. The city itself is compact and walkable, its downtown distinguished by a cohesive stretch of late 19th-century stone buildings constructed after a devastating fire leveled the earlier wooden town, earning it the nickname "Stone City."
Visitors can explore the harbor area within easy reach of the pier, browsing shops and cafés housed in the grand facades, or climb nearby Gaffelbyn hill for panoramic views over the town and surrounding waters. The High Coast itself, a UNESCO World Heritage site prized for its unusual geology, lies within a short drive and rewards those interested in hiking or coastal scenery beyond the city center.

How our planners would spend a day in Sundsvall.
Wander the Stone City Center
Stroll among the ornate late 19th-century stone facades of downtown, a short walk from the pier, and browse shops and cafés tucked into the grand old buildings.
Climb Gaffelbyn Hill
Head up this hill just above downtown for sweeping views over Sundsvall's rooftops and the surrounding waters; the walk up takes well under an hour round trip.
Venture into the High Coast
Arrange a drive out to this UNESCO-listed stretch of rebounding coastline for hiking trails and striking rocky island scenery unlike anywhere else on the Baltic.
