★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 57 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $142Best value

Meet your guide at Stockholm Nature, then hike 10 to 12 km through Nacka Nature Reserve, past lakes, granite cliffs, forests, and springs. Break for a campfire lunch and Swedish fika, with gas stoves used during fire bans. Guides may include Max, Sofia, Leo, or Francisco. The tour lasts about five hours.

“My fiancé and I had an amazing experience. Jacob, our tour guide from the UK, was nothing short of spectacular. He was informative, knowledgeable, and charismatic. As a fellow PhD candidate myself, I was intrigued in his studies where he shared in great detail his experiences and endeavors. We were also hoping to spot some Swedish wildlife but all we saw was a black bird so if wildlife is what you’re hoping to see, let me be the first to tell you that it isn’t going to happen. Yet, you will encounter some strikingly beautiful vistas with great photo opportunities. Book the excursion; you won’t be disappointed.”
