Malmo to Stockholm Map

Plan your trip between Malmo and Stockholm via the Southern Main Line. The route passes through Lund, Hassleholm, Alvesta, and Linkoping. Travel across the southern Swedish plains and through forests before reaching the Stockholm archipelago region. This line serves as the backbone of the Swedish rail transport system, connecting the Skane region to the capital.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

Rail travel provides direct city-center connections, avoiding the long transfers required for flights from Arlanda or Malmo Airport. While flying is shorter in the air, the total travel time is often comparable to the train. Buses are the least expensive option but take significantly longer. The high-speed rail remains a balanced choice for time and accessibility between Malmo and Stockholm.
