Gavle is a laid-back, picturesque destination full of natural charm, from its colourful wooden houses to its many lakes. Fishing and canoeing are among its popular outdoor activities. Getting around the city is easy with its excellent bus and taxi systems, but the best way to see the sights is by foot or bicycle, visiting the shops, pubs and restaurants along the way. Every winter season, local merchants and students construct the famous straw Gavle Goat, a giant version of the Swedish Yule Goat. It has been a tradition in Gavle since 1966.
