Stockholm to Malmo Map

Plan your trip between Stockholm and Malmo using the Southern Main Line (Sodra stambanan). The route travels south from Stockholm Central through Norrkoping, Linkoping, and Jonkoping before reaching Malmo Central. The path showcases the Swedish lake district and agricultural plains of Scania. This transport link is essential for travel within Sweden and for those continuing to mainland Europe via the bridge.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

Rail travel provides direct city-center connections, avoiding the long security queues and distance associated with Arlanda or Malmo airports. High-speed trains are faster than long-distance buses, which can take over 8 hours. While flights are shorter in the air, the total travel time including transfers makes the train a competitive and environmentally conscious choice for this route.
