Delary Gokart

In Älmhult, in the Småland region, Delary Gokart runs its outdoor track in the Delary industrial park, open throughout the year. You drive petrol-engined karts here, and the youngest are not left out thanks to electric cars that let them take the wheel safely. Access to the racing karts starts from about age seven, making it an outing open to the whole family.

Karting stays open to everyone, no licence or experience needed: a briefing, a helmet, and off you go chasing your best lap. The track happily takes groups, birthdays and company outings, with pay-per-session pricing and packages on booking. People come to challenge their friends, stopwatch in hand, and happily return to improve their time. As the activity runs outdoors, it pays to check the hours by season before coming.

Älmhult is a small Småland town best known as the birthplace of IKEA: this is where the famous brand opened its very first store, and the town now houses a museum devoted to its history. Around it, Småland unfolds its forests, lakes and famous Kingdom of Crystal, where several glassworks can still be visited. The region lends itself to hiking and summer swimming, and is easily reached by train on the Malmö-to-Stockholm line, or by road.
