About this tour

You do not have to leave the city to find proper Swedish nature. Djurgården’s royal parkland is a fifteen-minute walk from Östermalm — open fields, old oaks, water on every side.


For longer hikes through forest and lake country, we go further out. Recent guests have walked 8km routes ending with a swim.


Boots optional, curiosity required. Tell me how much ground you want to cover and I will plan around it.

What’s included

  • Guided walk with a local expert
  • Route planned to your fitness level
  • Recommendations for a swim stop, weather permitting

Adapt this tour

Tell me how long you want to walk. We can keep it short and close to the city, or make a full day of it.
