Things to do in Stockholm
Stockholm is filled to the brim with fun activities. Take the bus to Drottningholm on Ekerö, admire the Baroque gardens at Ulriksdal Palace, or pack a picnic basket and make yourself comfortable in Humlegården park. STF has hostels and hotels all over the city.
If you need inspiration ahead of your visit, Stockholm’s official visitors’ guide, Visitstockholm.com, has some excellent offers and recommendations. If you just want to stroll, you can visit the many independently run shops in Södermalm, or go to the shopping malls in the city. If you hire a bicycle, you can easily explore the different ridges (‘malmar’). Should you feel in the mood for a swim, there are excellent swimming spots in the middle of the city, such as at Långholmen and off the cliffs at Fredhäll.
