Archipelago hikes

Want to discover more of the Stockholm archipelago? Several beautiful sections of the Stockholm Archipelago Trail can be reached by boat from Vaxholm. Here are two suggested hikes: Grinda for variety and a bit of challenge, and Ingmarsö for a gentler walk close to island life and nature.

GRINDA – 9.8 KM, MODERATE

Grinda offers technical trails along the northern coast, swimming coves and scenic viewpoints. The eastern tip is a highlight, and shortcuts make it easy to adapt the route. Finish at Grinda Wärdshus.
