Location
The school takes place at
Hotel
Sjögården
in the small fishing village
Ellös,
on the island Orust on
the Swedish west coast, about 80 km north of Göteborg.
The hotel is beautifully situated by the sea, with a variety of
opportunities for outdoor activities. Wednesday afternoon
we will make a trip through the nearby archipelago on the fishing
boat Mary
Josefina.
Swedish summer is at its best in June, when the sun is always up
except for a few of hours around midnight.
Since the hotel is quite small, possibilities to bring family to
the school are unfortunately limited.
Travel
Most participants will probably find it most convenient to go by air,
train or ferry to Göteborg, which has direct flights from most major
European cities, and ferries from Denmark, Germany and England.
From Göteborg, the summer school has its own bus to Ellös. The bus
departs from Drottningtorget, Göteborg, at 16:00 on Sunday, June 13.
Drottningtorget is next to the Central Station (there are also regular
buses from Landvetter airport to Drottningtorget). The precise
location where our bus will wait for you is outside "Posthuset", which
is the large building directly to your left, just across the street,
when you exit from the main enterance of the Central Station.
Our bus takes us back from Ellös to Göteborg (Drottningtorget) at
13:15 on Saturday, June 19.
For participants who for some reason cannot use our bus, see our list
of regular buses.
