Nature TrailsThis is exactly what it sounds like; nature trails, but they're not strictly for Cub Scouts and people who carry trail-mix. Even though the trail-mixing crowd will definitely get their fill from a lot of these hikes and walks, so will those of us who aren't quite as fond of the wilderness. Tons of trails are simply romantic, or cultural, or fill the need for exercise or do all three and then some. So take your pick, you won't be sorry. AskrikerundanBogesundslandet in Vaxholm, approximately 6 km (3.7 miles).
Typical forest walk, through pine forests and past a beautiful lake. Not
perfect for winter walks but easily manoeuvered in the
summer. |
