🌞 Midsummer on Galterö – Camping, Swimming & Celebration! 🌿


Details
Join us for a midsummer overnight camping adventure on the beautiful Galterö island!
We’ll meet at Saltholmen ferry terminal at 14:00 on Friday, 20th May, and take the 14:21 ferry to Brännö Rödsten, arriving at 14:39. From there, we’ll walk about 2.5 km to Galterö, where we’ll find a scenic spot to set up camp and make a fire.
🌟 Planned activities include:
- Swimming in the sea 🏊
- Fishing 🎣
- Singing, dancing & games 🎶🕺
- Campfire evening 🔥
- Grilling (bring your own food!) 🍖
- Exploring a hidden sauna on the island 🔥🧖
🔍 Note: There is a public grill area, but it may be occupied. Please bring something to eat even if grilling isn’t possible, just in case.
🛏 Overnight stay:
We’ll spend the night in tents. On Saturday at 8:00, we’ll have breakfast together, followed by a relaxing walk around Galterö starting at 9:00.
We plan to take the 11:33 ferry back to Saltholmen, but everyone is free to leave earlier or later if they prefer.
