At Station Linné we have been organising nature experience activities for almost ten years. Thousands of families, school kids and visitors from all over Europe have visit us and had an unforgettable nature experience with one of our guides.

We contanlty develop new activities. This summer  (2009) we wil come with a multilanguagal and half-day acitivity which we call Treasures of Öland.

On this out of the ordinary family activitty , our guide takes you on a time trip through Öland and the Alvar. Expect to go treasure hunting, explore old monuments, get active and at the same time learn about the ecology and history of this surprising island! 

Treasures of Öland is developed as a family activity, for all ages. We have no special physical requirements. Just wear  what suits the weather best (rainclothes and boots when it is wet, hats and sunglases when it is warm).

During this 3 hour activity we will provide a teabreak with refreshments, but bring along your own drinking bottle with water on warm days!

Treasures of Öland will take place every thursday afternoon 14:00 -1700. Advanced booking only!
Costs: 200 SEK for adults and 50 SEK for children up till 16.

Thursdays in  July  (16, 23, 30):  Dutch and English
Thursdays in August (6 , 13, 20 , 27):   German,  Dutch and English

Guides: Renate Foks (Dutch, English), Ingrid von Brandt (German)
Renate is environmental educator and guide and Ingrid is biologist.

Other acitivities

We organise unique and learnfull nature tours between May and late August.

In May, when the orchirds bloom and the birds arrive on Öland, follow us on one of our orchid or bird tours.  Summertime is perfect to explore the flowerings meadows, look for butterflies or take a hike on the Alvar with one of guides.   

Kids will have a great time on our nature experience programme "Naturspanare" on monday, tuesday and thursday. On friday we will challange you to meet natures most scary creatures during  "Naturens Värstingar"

For a real out of the ordinary activity, be sure not to miss Mystery in the dark
(Mystik i mörkret), an evening activity there we search for bats, moths and other nocturnal animals. We organise Mystik i mörkret several times between may and august.
 
These tours are in Swedish, but most guides can accomodate english speaking guests. Just call in advance!
