GRINDA

A wonderful summer paradise

THE ARCHIPELAGO In her most beautiful summer dress

Do you love the archipelago?

We own cliffs, skerries, bays and beaches. We manage buildings used as hostels, tourist cabins and inns.

And it is we who look after the agriculture, guest jetties, bathing beaches and everything else that so many people associate with the archipelago that is such an obvious part of life.

But it’s not so obvious. Because if the Archipelago Foundation didn’t exist, who would then make sure that our areas are open for free and active outdoor leisure activities?

The archipelago boats make it easy for all to visit the islands. Download the app Waholmsbolaget or plan your journey online.

DID YOU KNOW? 15 000 people are somewhere in the archipelago at any given time during high season.

USE THE BOAT SERVICE TO FIND YOUR DESTINATION

Let the archipelago surprise you!

If you want to experience the archipelago, and visit one or several islands, the best option is probably to get on one of Waxholmsbolaget’s boats. Do you feel like jumping into the ocean from steep rocks, have an excellent meal or visit places with cultural significance? Let your curiosity lead the way!

I

f you want to get as close to nature as possible, you can bring your tent and travel from one island to the next. There are a number of youth hostels where you can stay overnight but keep in mind that most of the

places are popular and require that you make a reservation in advance.

At sea Waxholmsbolaget has a 5-day ticket that costs SEK 420. You use

the SL Access card that is also used for other public transport in Stockholm. The ticket is good for five days counting from your first journey and it gives you the right to unlimited travel on all of Waxholmsbolaget’s boats as well 5

Grinda is one of the most popular islands to visit. Enjoy sun, swimming and great food. as the Cinderella boats. If you want to stay in the archipelago even longer there is also a 30-day ticket.

If you do not have an SL access card you can purchase one for SEK 20. Download the app Waxholmsbolaget or visit the website to plan your trip.

As calm as it gets The youth hostel on Stora Kalholmen is the only building on the island and situated on a cliff with a glorious view of the ocean.

There is no running water, but the island is awesome for jumping off the cliffs into the water and it has a genuine old-fashioned sauna.

What do you love the most?

Mia Lidefelt, you and your family have spent the last 18 summers discovering the Stockholm archipelago, from Grisslehamn in the north to Öja in the south. What islands do you consider a must see for those who are new to the archipelago?

– Grinda is super cozy. There are nature trails, animals, beaches and it is a paradise for those of us who are into geocaching.

Another one of my favorites is Huvudskär, an island far out in the archipelago with the most wonderful nature. You really feel like you are a part of history when you walk around by the old fisherman cottages. Another island that can’t be missed is Utö with its beautiful nature and magical beaches. Utö also suits people who enjoy culture and good food, and don’t miss the bakery.

BIKE AROUND THE ISLAND At Rånå you can rent a bike and combine a fabulous nature experience with some exercise. When you feel like some relaxation you can get off of the bike at one of the beautiful beaches.

ARHOLMA

Photo: Visit Roslagen

- The scenic outpost in the north On Arholma you can take long walks on gravel roads through a wonderful landscape with traditional houses and verdant meadows. This is also one of the best places to visit if you want to enjoy a breathtaking sunset in the archipelago.

U

pon arrival on Arholma you step onto a genuine old pier. Follow the path to the restaurant, find a seat on the terrace and enjoy the magnificent view of the skerries while having something nice to eat and drink.

If you stay overnight you can walk over to the western port and have a traditional sauna. Locals and tourists meet in the heat of the wooden fire to share laughter and fishing stories. Those who are brave cool off in the ocean.

A place for provisions Many visitors seize the opportunity to purchase food on Arholma, as the store on the island has a

10

better selection than most of the other stores in the archipelago.

Historical Island If you are interested in history you should plan for a visit to the old military site called Arholma nord. It is no longer in use and today it serves as a museum.

Hostel Bull-August Bull-August hostel is housed in an old, charming farmhouse from the 1800s. You get a true sense of the olden days when you step over the high thresholds into rooms with low ceilings. There is a kitchen were you can cook your food, showers and toilets.

Gisela Norén at Visit Roslagen: – Arholma is one of Roslagen’s most popular islands and one of my personal favorites. I recommend all who visit Arholma to walk or bike around the island’s winding gravel roads and enjoy the maritime landscape. I never miss an opportunity to visit Båken or to have an ice cream on the rock overlooking the northern pier.

HOTELL HAVSBADEN

– an all senses experience Hotell Havsbaden is located in Grisslehamn, on the northern tip of Väddö. You will have no problems whatsoever to relax during your stay. Once you gaze out on the horizon you will feel an instant calm.

H

otell Havsbaden, two hours north of Stockholm and is the place to visit if you want to relax and recharge your batteries. Enjoy the stillness and the spectacular view in the spa or take a walk to the birdwatchers’ favorite spot: Skatudden.

If you enjoy swimming in the ocean you will love the beach by the artist Albert Engström’s studio.

Christina Nilsson, you run Hotell Havsbaden. How do you welcome the guest when they arrive?

– Most visitors arrive in time for our afternoon tea where we serve a large variety of home made pastries, scones and smoothies together with coffee or tea.

Thereafter many of our guests pay a visit to the spa or take a

12

walk in the beautiful surroundings.

Why do you think your spa is so popular among the guests?

– One of the reasons is definitely the fact that the spa has the best view. From the hot tub spas and the terrace all you see is the ocean. I enjoy watching the guests settle down in a lounger and just disappearing into themselves when they gaze at the view.

Stay at Hotell Havsbaden All the double rooms have a view of the harbor and the single rooms overlook the courtyard.

Our suites are located on the top floor, have windows from the floor to the ceiling and balconies facing the ocean. Both suites have their own hot tub spas. “We don’t tend to see a lot of the people who check into our suites”, says Christina.

Hotell Havsbaden has rooms for those of the guests who want to bring their four legged friend along. These rooms have gates that open onto the lawn.

As much as possible of the food that is served at Hotell Havsbaden is locally produced. Enjoy salmon from Fogdö and hamn from Muskö.

Find your way here Grisslehamn is situated on Väddö, 110 kilometers north of Stockholm.

You can travel by car or bus all the way here. Bus 637 from Tekniska högskolan stops just below the hotel. There are two guest spaces for those who travel here in their own boat.

Grosshandlargården on

MARHOLMEN

Restaurant Grosshandlargården is open during the summer. Enjoy scents and flavours of the archipelago in an historical environment.

M

arholmen is located 13 kilometers south of Norrtälje, about one hour by car from Stockholm, but you can also travel here by bus or by boat. A visit to Marholmen is perfect for the family, a group of friends or for couples looking for a weekend getaway. Here you can enjoy the beautiful nature, bask in the sun on the beach and have delicious food. There is a playground for the children and also a miniature golf course.

Grosshandlargården Grosshandlargården is a majestic building in art nouveau style

14

close to the water. The restaurant is open during the summer season and opened to the public in the spring of 2011 following a gentle renovation. Here you can experience the food of Roslagen underneath the beautiful ceiling paintings by Elsa Beskow.

Anders Ljungberg, you are the Marketing Director at Marholmen. What would you say characterizes the food that you serve at Grosshandlargården?

– We care about Roslagen’s

culinary traditions and pride ourselves in using locally produced raw ingredients to as great an extent as possible. Our food is rustic, our side dishes exciting and we adjust the menu according to the season.

Is there something that you are extra proud of?

– I would like to highlight our vegetable garden where we grow a lot of the greens and early produce that we serve our guests.

That’s what we call locally grown.

Stay at Marholmen There are a number of different options for those who want to

stay at Marholmen. Among others there are quaint cottages and hotel rooms with a glorious ocean view.

Traditional cookbook Grosshandlargården has its own cookbook that is a salute to the traditional food from Roslagen.

Several of the recipes are from the matron’s own cookbook from the 30s, which was found during the renovations. Unfortunately it is not available in English at this time.

Pythagoras industrimuseum is a unique piece of Swedish industrial history.

PYTHAGORAS

Industrial Museum

When the old ignition bulb motor factory was closed in the 60s, the workers turned the lights out and left everything exactly the way it was. Today we are lucky to have a piece of Swedish industrial history in the heart of Norrtälje.

I

n the 90s the old factory was turned into a museum, but Pythagoras Industrial museum is not an ordinary museum that gathers objects and where the staff builds exhibits.

At Phythagoras everything the visitors experience is real.

Dramatically saved – The factory was falling apart, was about to be demolished but was saved by a dramatic course of events. We are very grateful for it still being here since our museum tells a story that’s not told anywhere else. We show the factory floor, machines, engines, offices, workers’ housing and the garden. Our focus is on the

18

stories, says Erika Grann, Head of the museum.

Tell us about the stories that you share with the visitors.

– From our perspective, the point is to present an environment that really makes it feel like the workers only are on a break.

If you come visit us on the weekend or during high-season we have live tours of the museum.

If you visit us during the offseason you still have access to the stories via an audio-guide that makes the history come alive.

And there’s a workshop for the children?

– We have built a great big workshop where the children can put the mechanical principles

into practice in their play. They really get a chance to indulge in all sorts of technical things.

Erika Grann is the head of the museum.

Technology is fun at the children’s Pythagoras.

Parents and grandparents who bring children will have no problem whatsoever to spend a full day here, and when you get hungry I recommend a visit to our café Smedjan.

Travel to Pythagoras Travel to Norrtälje by car or bus 676 from central Stockholm. If you come here with your own boat, berth in the harbor and make your way to the museum on

SANDHAMN SEGLARHOTELL – a given summertradition

Sandhamn is a classic destination in the archipelago. At Sanhamn Seglarhotell you live in style, enjoy great food and take good care of yourself in the relaxing spa.

S

andhamn is only a short boat ride from Stockholm and is one of the most popular islands to visit in the archipelago.

This destination is well known for its metropolitan feeling, with a number of popular restaurants and bars. But it also has idyllic nature with windblown pine forests, beaches and smooth rocks by the water.

Sandhamn Seglarhotell Many consider staying one or a couple of nights at Sandhamn Seglarhotell a summer tradition.

It is a mini holiday that takes you far away and as close to the archipelago as you can get. The hotel is just a short walk from the pier and the popular guest harbor.

Karin Haglund, you work with market communication at Sandhamn Seglarhotell, can you tell

32

us what you want your guests to experience once they enter your hotel?

– We want our guests to feel taken care of and welcomed by our friendly staff. Our goal is for it to feel comfortable to be here and that our guests can let go of all the demands of everyday life. Just relax, enjoy the fresh air and do things that recharge the batteries.

Go for a walk, go for a bike ride and enjoy a glass of wine in the pool bar.

What are the housing options?

– There are 79 double rooms in the hotel and 3 suites with a sauna. In the area around the outdoors pool there are 9 apartments and we also have the exclusive house ”Havsvillan”. Our apartments are luxurious and nice and if you chose to cook your own meals you can sit outside on the terrace and eat.

And there’s a pool and spa at the hotel.

– We have a spa that’s overlooking the harbor where you can go for a swim in the pool, enjoy the hot tub spas or just relax in front of the fireplace. There’s also a pool outside and lounge chairs for those of our guests who want to relax with a book in the sun.

Get in shape on your holiday This summer you can sign up for an active holiday with David Tainton at Sandhamn Seglarhotell that will help you get started with a fun exercise regimen.

Fun for mini pirates On Mondays and Tuesdays between 1-4 pm Sandhamn Seglarhotell has a Pirate Club for children up to the age of 12 in the Sea Club area with treasure hunt, show and fun and games.

it For more information vis om n.c am www.sandh

After sail! This summer there is complementary live music and a DJ on the pier every Friday between 4 and 6 pm.

ABOUT SANDHAMN Sandhamn truly is an idyllic island, a treasure of the archipelago, and lot of the buildings date back to the late 1800s. Today the island has about 100 residents, some of whom are sea pilots and fishermen who cast their nets early in the morning just like generations have done before them.

33

FJÄDERHOLMARNA

- Stockholm’s Closest Island A 25-minute boat ride from Slussen or Nybroplan will take you to what is referred to as ‘Stockholm’s closest island in the archipelago’.

Fjäderholmarna has gorgeous nature, culture and excellent food.

F

jäderholmarna is a popular and much visited destination and you can be certain that you will find that ‘archipelago feeling’ when you get there. This summer Martin ”E-Type” Erikson has opened the restaurant Skärgårdskompaniet and another 2016 addition is the island’s very own chocolate manufacturer.

Peder Ling, destination manager Fjäderholmarna Strömma, what are the must sees at Fjäderholmarna?

– On Fjäderholmarna there are, among others, a ceramics workshop, a smithy and a glassworks.

Many people enjoy watching the artists and craftsmen work and visit the shops, says Peder.

34

What are the food options?

– There are many restaurants and cafés on the island, from fine dining to more relaxed places, and visitors are also welcome to bring their own picnic. Skärgårdskompaniet, that serves food with Caribbean flavors, is an exciting new culinary addition this year.

Music & Festival All summer long Fjäderholmarna welcomes Sweden’s most popular singers onto their stage. From the children’s favorite Sean Banan to Pugh Rogefeldt. If you are in town 17-21 August – don’t miss the Stockholm Viking Festival.

GRINDA - a holiday paradise

Just an hour by boat will take you to an island with a holiday atmosphere. Many consider a visit to Grinda a summer tradition.

I

t’s just as popular to visit Grinda for the day as it is to stay for a couple of nights. On Grinda you can enjoy the nature, eat good food, and if you don’t want to lie in the sun all day there are plenty of things to do.

36

Photo: Dan Kullberg and others

Travel to Grinda In the summertime there are several boats that will transport you from Stockholm, Nacka Strand, Lidingö and Värmdö. From Stockholm the journey takes about an hour. From Värmdö it’s a short ten-minute trip.

If you take your own boat to Grinda there is a guest harbor just in front of the popular restaurant Framfickan. You have access to water and showers. It is also possible to get rid of your garbage

and fuel up. A small grocery store and ice cream kiosk are just a couple of minutes away.

Wärdshuset Grinda The award winning restaurant Wärdshuset Grinda is just a short walk from the guest harbor and has a lovely ocean view.

Jennie Palm, customer service representative at Grinda, what do I have to look forward to if I plan a visit to the restaurant Wärdshuset Grinda?

– The atmosphere at Wärdshuset is fabulous. Both staff and guests are in a great mood and there’s this awesome summer feeling. Wärdshuset’s food is

excellent, there is a lot of seafood on the menu, but we also serve meat.

Restaurant Framfickan Restaurant Framfickan, a less fancy alternative compared to Wärdshuset, is located right on the edge of the water by the guest harbor.

Jennie, tell us about the ambiance at Framfickan. What is

it that makes so many visitors come back each year?

– One of the main reasons is that we serve great food, but I would say that the feeling that you get when you have your meal in the evening sun also plays a big role. Grinda is really close to the city, yet it will make Stockholmers feel like they are in an exotic vacation spot.

Do you have a favorite item on the menu?

– The fish- and seafood soup, without a doubt! Another great dish that we have had on the menu for many years is the fishburger that we update with new Swedish flavors each year.

They have a large selection of toppings – from smoked salmon to jam, whipped cream and ice cream. If you are not in the mood for waffles there are other items on the menu. A playroom for the kids located adjacent to the bistro provides parents with and extra minute or two to enjoy their meal.

A summer outing just isn’t complete without ice cream, which of course also is available to purchase on the citadel. Visitors are welcome to bring their own picnic.

Head Chef Martin Andersson offers a new take on traditional Swedish flavours.

UTÖ

- Holiday haven for a century

Utö is situated far out in the archipelago and the island has wonderful beaches. The destination is perfect for both families and people who enjoy exercising and experiencing new things on their vacation.

U

tö’s history dates back to the 1100s when the mining industry started on the island. Today the mining operation’s office that was built in the 1820s houses the inn Utö Värdshus. At the end of the 1800s, the wholesaler Mr. Levin purchased the northern part of the island with the intention of creating a holiday haven for Stockholm’s society, and at this time the old office was remodeled and turned into a restaurant.

A glorious day in the archipelago Malin Lidström, you are the hotel manager at Utö Värdshus.

Can you describe a top-notch vacation day on Utö?

– When you arrive on our island you can rent a bike on the pier, walk across to the bakery and buy

48

a picnic to bring with you. Get on your bikes and ride about 7 kilometers south where there are lovely beaches. When you have had enough sun for the day you continue south down to Ålö and the quaint restaurant BåtsHaket.

They serve salmon in just about every way imaginable, and you can buy a wooden crate with smoked shrimp and sit and eat them on the pier.

That really sounds like the ultimate archipelago experience?

– It really is, and the day isn’t over. Get on the bikes again and go back to the north side of the island. Have something to drink at Seglarbaren and look at the boats that are arriving to the guest harbor before having dinner at Utö Värdshus. If you are still looking for more fun you can head on

over to “Bakfickan” that is a bar and dance floor housed in an old storage building.

A new take on Swedish flavors Martin Andersson is head chef at Utö Värdshus: – We cook traditional Swedish food but with a new and creative twist to it. We want our food to have that archipelago feel to it, but we also want to surprise our guests with less traditional choices of raw ingredients or how we prepare them. We chose organic and locally produced ingredients, and we follow the seasons for fruits and vegetables as well as for meats and fish.

MINIGOLF There’s something for everybody on UtÜ, not the least for the youngest visitors.

The minature golf course is located right in front of Seglarbaren and is open everyday during the summer season.

I

f you travel south on Dalarövägen för 30 minutes and take the exit towards Gålö you will reach a wonderful nature preserve.

We say that Gålö Havsbad is big and small at the same time. Big enough for great adventures and experiences but also small enough to be cozy and relaxing”, says Maria Jonasson, Managing Director at Gålö Havsbad.

Maria, what makes Gålö Havsbad worth a visit?

The campsite and cottages are in the middle of a nature preserve. It’s a scenic and calming environment that offers a refuge from everyday life at the same time as it offers a lot of fun things

to do. Since Gålö is located on the mainland it is easy to get here.

What do families with children entertain themselves with during a visit?

Our beautiful beach with shallow water, the ice cream kiosk and the miniature golf course are very popular. Parents often tell us that they come here so that their children will get to experience things that they remember from their own childhood, such as fishing and being in nature. Visiting here is uncomplicated. Come for an afternoon swim or stay all summer.

Diver Johan Magnusson examines an anchor by the fore of the Dalarö shipwreck. The well preserved haul is visible in the background as well as one of the masts that is still standing after 400 years.

DALARÖ SHIPWRECKS

– An historical journey under the sea A large number of well-preserved wooden ships are hidden under the sea just outside of Dalarö. Several are war ships from Sweden’s great power period in the 1600s. Now you can see this cultural heritage without as much as having to dip your toes in the water.

T

he onboard guide pilots between the different wrecks and tells stories about the islands and places that you pass.

At each table there is a screen that shows underwater movies at the same time as you listen to tales of what happened.

Under the Surface If you want to get even closer to the wrecks you can go on a safari with an underwater robot. The robot is lowered into the water by one of the wreckages and the

56

pilot onboard remote controls it.

After the live show the trips continues as described above.

Briefly about the wrecks The Dalarö wreck was found by divers in 2003 and is one of the world’s most well preserved shipwrecks from the 1600s. It’s at a depth of 30 meters and located

by Edsön outside of Dalarö. Two 16-meter masts are still intact and there are objects such as ceramic pitchers, glass bottles and a pistol on and close by the wreck.

The Jutholm wreck and the Saltskutan that both sunk in Dalarö river in the early 1700s are both examples of trade ships that started to traffic the seas during this period. These wrecks were examined in the 1970s and a large number of the objects that were salvaged are at the museum of maritime history.

Other wrecks that are paid a visit during the wreck safari are the great warships Riksäpplet and Gröne Jägaren that sunk following battles with the Danish navy

Two divers hover over the fore of the Dalarö shipwreck.

Photo: Torbjörn Gylleus

in the middle of the 1600s close to Dalarö fortress, and the cargo ship Ingrid Horn, a ship that sunk following a dramatic collision in the early 1900s.

In Anders Franzén’s footsteps It’s a great idea to combine a wreck safari with a visit to the Dalarö customs-house, built in 1788, that is the home of a large number of salvaged ship trea-

sures. Anders Franzén’s shed can be shown upon request.

– Anders Franzén is known as the man who discovered the famous Vasa ship. His maritime exploratory adventures, that originated out of the Dalarö shed, is one of the reasons for the great interest in marine archaeology in Sweden. The Vasa museum on Djurgården is one of the most popular tourist attractions and

now we also have the first marine culture preserve, Dalarö shipwreck area, to share with visitors, says tourist manager LO Landin.

HOIST THE SAILS Per Karlbom, you run the company Hissa segel who charters boats with skippers.

What characterizes your skippers?

– They all have a ship’s officer degree, which means that they are authorized to have guests onboard. We are also careful to select people who are social, outgoing and who speak different languages in order for it to be enjoyable to spend time together on the boat. During the sail the skippers also act as guides as they have a thorough knowledge of both the nature and the history.

Can you share a memory from one of the sails when you were a skipper?

– I sailed to Stora Nassa with a Swiss family and they thought it was amazing. Experiencing the colors and glittering ocean together with them made me see the archipelago with fresh eyes.

AN ADVENTUROUS VACATION Per Flodmark, you run Sailmarine, a company that charters boats with or without a skipper.

What are the advantages of renting a boat?

– Our vessels have all the necessary equipment; from life vests to grill and transom ladder so that you can get ashore. It’s quite a big commitment to own a sailboat, and when you rent you get the full experience without having to do all the work that comes with it.

A lot of the people who rent our boats have owned a boat of their own before, or grown up with a sailboat.

– People are looking for an adventure and to learn new things

on their holiday. Quite a few of our renters chose to have a skipper come along for a few days and seize the opportunity to increase their own maritime skill level.

Do you have a card up your sleeve that you pull out should there be rain for several days in a row?

– There are a lot of guest- and natural harbors in the archipelago on islands where there is a sauna.

If it’s rainy we will send those who charter our boats a list of islands where the saunas are up and running.

FULL SPEED AHEAD Did you ever go on a RIB-boat ride in the archipelago? If you haven’t tried it – then you have an exhilarating experience to look forward to. Travelling full speed ahead over the water in a RIB-boat will tickle all of your senses. Of course there is the speed, but you also feel close to nature. There are a number of companies that offer excursions in the Stockholm archipelago and it is fun for both young and old. Put some comfortable clothes and shoes on and enjoy the ride. Children must be at least 140 centimeters tall in order to reach the boat flooring.

Stora Kalholmen is a great place to make a pit stop. A great place to sunbathe and swim.

Natural harbors

A natural harbor is a place that has all the right conditions in order to offer a safe place for leisure boats to berth. The difference between a natural harbor and a visitor’s harbor is that there is a fee at the visitor’s harbor and that the natural harbor lacks most facilities.

There is however usually a place to leave garbage and outhouse.

Here are a few of the most popular natural harbors in the Archipelago: Northern: Skeppskär Gräskö Själbottna Östra Lagnö Ängsö Nationalpark Svartlöga
