Glimåkra is a locality situated in Östra Göinge Municipality, Scania County, Sweden with 1,383 inhabitants in 2010. [1]

The hiking trail Skåneleden's oldest section, SL1 Kust till kust (Coast to coast) passes just north of the village, also featuring a smaller path leading to it from Trollabadet. [2] [3] As hikers approach the village from the east, the landscape transitions from dense woodland to bright and rocky pastures. [4] The path continues westwards towards Osby, passing through the nearby Trollabackarnas forest. [5]
