Introducing Sund

Sund, just east of the main island group and connected by bridge to Saltvik, is one of the most interesting municipalities in Åland. As well as a muscular medieval castle and large open-air museum, its attractions include a snail-tasting tour and the ruins of a formidable Russian stronghold. Sund is just 30km from Mariehamn, which makes it an ideal first overnight stop on a slow-paced bicycle tour. Finby, in the centre of Sund, is the largest town, with all services.
