Gunnebo House and Gardens is signposted both from E6 (Lackarebäcksmotet) and Riksväg 40 westward (Mölnlyckemotet). When you have driven about 100 meters on John Halls väg, you are inside the Gunnebo cultural reserve. No unauthorized motor vehicles may be parked or driven in the gardens for safety and space reasons.

We encourage everyone to carpool if you come by car. It is much more sustainable and the number of parking spaces is limited.
