All that's missing from Gränna are Oompa-Loompas. The scent of sugar hangs over the
village, and shops overflow with the village's trademark red-and-white peppermint rock
(polkagris)

Across the water and 6km west is peaceful Visingsö. Connected by frequent ferries and
home to Sweden's largest oak forest, it's a great place to cycle and relax.
