Kalmar City Car Hire

Kalmar Oxhagen is a residential and shopping area approximately 2 km north of Kalmar city center with two rental companies offering convenient service without the congestion of city traffic. The location near Route 25 makes it easy to quickly head west toward the Kingdom of Glass or north toward Oskarshamn. The airport is just 3 km away.

Oxhagen borders Kalmar County Hospital and several major retail chains along the northern part of Storgatan. From here, it's 4 km to the Öland Bridge and 6 km to Kalmar Castle. Nybro, with Orrefors and Kosta glassworks, is reached in 35 minutes to the west.

Choose Oxhagen over the city center if you want to avoid parking stress – it's easier to maneuver with a freshly picked-up car here. Take the opportunity to shop at ICA Maxi nearby before heading out on longer excursions. Book well in advance during July when Öland tourism significantly increases demand.
