A nice autumn day in Viken

Yesterday was probably the last fairly warm and nice autumn day in the Øresund region this year. I biked to the picturesque former fishing and shipping community Viken about 10 km to the north of Helsingborg.

The lighthouse in Viken is wellknown for all seafarers in the Øresund area
On land the old windmill is perhaps the best known landmark in Viken
There are still clear signs of the fishing community in Viken
The beautiful old mill is well preserved
The beach is now empty
Yesterday there were still quite a few boats in the harbour
There is a very nice small public park in Viken

The charming old houses in Viken are extremely well kept
