In the middle of the Baltic Sea sits the island of "Gothland"—the ancient home of the Goths—about 121km (75 miles) long and 56km (35 miles) wide.

An investment of a little extra time will reveal that Gotland, with its cliffs, unusual rock formations, bathing beaches, and rolling countryside, is rich territory.
