Nature & Adventure

Full speed ahead at Sörbybacken

Published August 13, 2020 / Updated May 19, 2026
Sörbybacken offers activities that will get your adrenaline pumping. Here you’ll find a zipline, a high ropes course, and paintball, as well as some calmer activities like soccer golf.

"Adventure is closer than you think." That saying fits Sörbybacken perfectly. Here, you're practically in the city—and yet right in the middle of nature.

Sörbybacken offers activities for everyone who loves high-speed thrills. If you’re the type who loves being up in the air, there are both high-rope courses and a zipline. For those who prefer something a bit more down-to-earth but still fast-paced, there’s paintball and soccer golf.

High-altitude adventures among the treetops.

With its 182 steps, the staircase in Sörbybacken is a popular spot for exercise, but it’s just as perfect for those who simply want to climb to the top to enjoy the view. There’s also a large outdoor gym here.

And doesn’t working out make you hungry? Well, there’s some really great pizza just a short walk away. At the foot of Sörbybacken, you’ll find Sörens Vedugn, which serves pizzas with thin, crispy sourdough crusts. Sörens Glassbar is also set to open in 2026.

Until summer break, Sörbybacken is open to everyone on Saturdays. During summer break, it’s open every day. Want to book for a large group or a corporate event? Check out their website and book there.

I love the rush of adrenaline coursing through me. Sörbybacken makes me feel alive!
