Hyppeln is a Swedish island in the archipelago of Gothenburg, part of Öckerö Municipality. It is about 1.5 kilometres (0.9 mi) long. To reach Hyppeln, visitors must take a car ferry from Lilla Varholmen to Hönö. Then, they can use a personal car or ride a bus to the ferry terminal.[1] The island is home to many seabirds.
"Hyppeln" is also the name of the village on the island, which has about 150 permanent residents.
The island has a selection of points of interest to visitors. Man-made structures include a sauna, grocery store, and guest harbour.[1] The guest harbor features 60 open spots and has a depth of 2.5-3.5m, and is the location of other amenities such as a restrooms and a laundry room.[2] There is also a rocky hiking trail, which is 3km long and takes 1-2 hours to complete. The trail features an old military fort as well as a point where one can see across the land - 'Jättehuvudet'.[3]
