Discover Söråker: Nature, Promenade and Culture

Söråker combines nature, history, culture and local culinary experiences into a varied travel destination. Those looking for a holiday apartment or holiday home can combine different ideas for each day here: walks through the landscape, historical impressions, special cinema experiences and regional cuisine all sit side by side. This makes the choice of accommodation primarily a question of the travel rhythm you want.

Nature between forest and open grazing areas

One defining natural area is the Fågelsången nature reserve. It consists mainly of high-stemmed deciduous forest and open grazing areas. As a result, the landscape is not a uniform forest but a succession of different habitats. For your travel planning, this is an interesting perspective if you would like to combine peaceful nature observation and outdoor activity with other experiences.

The approximately 3 km-long Söråker seaside promenade also provides a clear reference point for planning your day. It was completed in 2012, is intended for pedestrians and cyclists, and is maintained by Timrå Municipality. There are barbecue areas and rest furniture along the promenade. There are also parking spaces at Båthamnsgatan by the marina, along the Söråker seaside promenade. The approximate route length helps you fit an excursion into your daily schedule without equating it with other routes or activities.

Historic manor house and modern culture

Söråkers Herrgård was built in 1853 by J.C. Kempe. The manor house is one of the oldest manor houses in Timrå Municipality and has a well-preserved exterior. Today, Söråkers Herrgård operates as a modern conference venue. Thus, historical substance and present-day use meet in this place. For travellers interested in culture, this is a remarkable contrast.

Another cultural highlight is Bio Hjärtat in Söråker. The cinema was named “Cinema of the Year 2024” by Folkets Hus och Parker. It can show live broadcasts of concerts, theatre, opera and sporting events via satellite on a nine-metre cinema screen. This creates an alternative to a day spent exclusively outdoors. Families and travel groups with different interests can therefore plan more varied days without steering every activity in the same direction.

Regional cuisine and the right holiday base

Culinary impressions are also part of Söråker’s local character. Gamla affären grusvägskrog is a roadside restaurant and wine bar in Söråker. In addition, local vegetables and tomatoes are grown in Söråker without chemical pesticides, with a focus on flavour. Alongside nature and culture, these aspects add a pleasurable dimension to your trip.

When looking for a holiday apartment in Söråker, it is therefore worth first deciding on the focus of your holiday: Would you like to put the natural area and promenade at the centre, discover historic architecture, experience a cultural programme at the cinema or explore regional cuisine? Accommodation in Söråker can serve as a starting point for a individually planned trip.
