Overview
Are you enjoying Stockholm, but you’re tired of walking in the dirty muddy snow of the city center? Have you heard of Scandinavia’s typical landscapes but can't seem to find them in the city? Then look no further. Only a 15-minute car drive away you can find these stunning landscapes. Join us for a winter hike into nature!

Return transfers from the city to the forest
Knowledgeable, English-speaking guide
All required equipment and gear
Lunch, snacks, coffee and/or tea
What to expect?
Meeting at Ystadsvägen 18. Metro station Hammarbyhöjden, on the green line, number 17, towards Skarpnäck. You can check the meeting point location on Google Maps.
Upon arrival we put on our woolly hats and start to flatten the snow under our steps. On the way we will have the chance to talk about plants, Scandinavian animals and the nature itself. We like to avoid the paths as much as possible as we want to show you the deepness of the forest and take you to our little secret spots.
We have a break around noon and take the chance to build a fire to warm up, to cook lunch and to enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee or tea afterwards.
It won't be long before the sun sets on the horizon so torch lamps will be needed. The afternoon is usually the best time to spot animals. If the temperatures allow us, we will walk on one of the frozen lakes on our way out of the nature reserve before returning to the city with a head full of memories.
How to get there, coming from the Hammarbyhöjden Metro station:
When you step off the metro take left, then exit the metro station. You arrive at Malmövägen, take the right and follow the sharp 90° turn going left then continue walking for about 5 minutes. On the way, you will pass the café called ''Bonne Femme’', pass it and continue down the road for about 1 minute.
The house on the corner of Ystadsvägen is where you'll meet your guide. The logo True Nature Sweden is written on the windows.
