    Hiking

    The founding date of the city of Visby is not exactly known, and it is lost somewhere in the dark ages, but this place was inhabited even in the 9th century AD because there was a fresh water source and a safe harbor. The name Visby has its origins in Old Norse Vis - a sacred place and By - the village. The city was founded by the Gutas of the indigenous population of the island, who gave it its name.
