Tag: Djurgården E

The greenest island

Djurgården is the second largest island of Stockholm. If you walk or run around the island, you should count on 10 kilometers. Djurgården is sometimes called the Museum Island because there are so many museums: Vasamuseet, Nordiska Museet, ABBA: The Museum, Skansen, Gröna Lund, Junibacken,…

Previously the royal hunting grounds were established here, hence the name. It is a quiet place where tourists and locals love to come and linger. You can go hiking, cycling, and there are even water sports facilities.

Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel have romantic a love alley (Kärleksstigen) on the island, you can have great fika in one of the many nearby restaurants and you can even enjoy real gourmet restaurants too.

Although at first sight it might not look like it, but there are also people living on this island. Stig Anderson, the former ABBA manager used to be one of them, he is even buried on this island. Today there are only about 800 people living here!

You can reach Djurgården on foot (through Strandvägen and Djurgardsbron), by boat (from Slussen) and by tram (No. 7, departs from Kunsträdgården).
