Långe Erik
A white lighthouse at the northernmost tip of Öland, built on a small island and surrounded by coastal rocks next to the Trollskogen forest.
Långe Erik Lighthouse was completed in 1845 and stands about 32 meters tall. It is on Grant Island at the northern tip of Öland and can be reached by a small bridge. In summer, visitors can climb the tower to overlook the Baltic Sea and the northern coast. There are sandy beaches and rocky shores nearby. It can be combined with Trollskogen and the Byrum raukar in a one-day northern Öland trip. Tower admission is about 50 Swedish kronor. The lighthouse is about 130 kilometers from Kalmar.
