There’s some nice waterfront running in Råå, a suburb popular for its beach and nature preserve just a few km north of Helsingborg. We’ve mapped a route of up to 5.5 km one-way — nearly all of it on a gravel path near the water. Nice views of the Öresund strait.
Southern end of path. Google Street View
The northern end starts at Knähakens nakenbad park. It’s a fairly narrow path, which can be sandy. Head south on the path alongside/above the beach. At the 2 km point, you’ll reach the Råå Museum, then looping around the harbor and then an 0.5 km section along a road. Rejoin the path. The path along the final 1 km is paved, with the beach on one side and the Rya Golf Club on the other. The south end is at the Hundbadplats outdoor baths in Rydebäck.

A great way to get introduced to Helsingborg, and hits all the highlights: Old Town, a path along the marina, and several parks: Vikingsberg, Öresundsparken, Slottshagen, & Stadsparken.
A nice run in the northern part of Helsingborg that features the 'Tunnel of Love', Kullaleden Helsingborg National Forest and Pålsjö Nature Reserve. It's nearly all on paths, through a combination of wooded and more open, farm-like terrain.
A pleasant run through a series of small parks in esastern Helsingborg. The route is on a combination of pedestrian and cycle paths. Distance is up to 5.8 km one-way, between the Olympia stadium/recreation center and the Ramlösa health resort.
Take a 20-minute ferry ride to Helsingør, Denmark for spectacular running around the Kronborg -- the 16th-century castle that's the model for Elsinore in Hamlet -- and on waterfront paths along the Øresund Strait.
