Falkenberg

A coastal town in Halland on Sweden's west coast, Falkenberg sits at the mouth of the river Ätran where it meets the Kattegat, with a compact centre of cafés and restaurants and a main beach at Skrea strand that draws summer visitors. The E6/E20 motorway between Oslo and Copenhagen passes nearby, and the Västkustbanan railway line also serves the town.
