STHLM Outdoor

Let’s hike Stockholm’s newest hiking trail, the Archipelago Trail, together. This is the first section of about 20 in total. We start at the very south and take a ferry from Nynäshamn to the island of Öja/Landsort. This event is for those who don‘t like to spend the night or choose to book accommodation on the island rather than camping.

For details and signup please be referred to:

Let's venture into Kolmården, a wild, deep forest full of nature and history. This untamed woodland once formed a natural border between the ancient tribes of Götar and Svear.

Walk through quiet woods, past the dramatic cliffs of Bråviken, with stunning, wide sea views. We’ll cross lakes, marshes, and rocky hills on this multi day adventure, following Sörmlandsleden stretches 32:2, 33, 34, 35, and 36.

The total hiking distance is 44 km over three days, and it can be challenging at times.

⚠️⚠️⚠️ We will check the weather a week in advance. If the weather is decent, we will go. If it's three days of rain, we might give a raincheck

Itinerary

Day 1 - Thursday 29th May (18km)
We begin at Kolmården Zoo and hike into the forest landscape of Fjällmossen Nature Reserve. After 9 km, we reach Bråvikenbranten, where we enjoy beautiful sea views along Bråviken before heading back into the forest. We then ascend towards the wetlands in the heart of Fjällmossen, where we aim to set up camp by a small lake.

Day 2 - Friday 30th May (15km)
On day two, we'll leave Fjällmossen and head to the beautiful Nävsjömossen Nature Reserve. Surrounded by forests and wetlands, we'll camp by the calm waters of Svartsjön or Nävsjön.

Day 3 - Saturday 31st May (11km)
The last day is a bit shorter. We hike through the beautiful rocky forest towards Nävekvarn. At Nävekvarn’s cliff, we'll once again enjoy stunning views of the sea along Bråviken. Then, we head into the village of Nävekvarn, where we’ll return home.

Pack Weight
A light backpack makes hiking easier, more fun, and safer. A heavy pack can slow you down and drain your energy. To keep it light, bring only what you need and choose light gear. Saving weight on the heaviest items, sleeping bag, backpack, and tent, makes the biggest impact. Leave all the ”nice-to-haves” at home. Keep the weight under 15 kg, aiming ideally for around 10-12 kg.

Water
There are water wells at these distances along the hike: 4 km, 18 km, 20 km, 30 km, and 38 km. The quality of the wells may vary. We'll also camp near lakes, where the water will likely be safe for cooking. Since water is heavy and there are plenty of water sources, we can carry less, making our packs lighter and easier to carry.
