Description

Day 1: Stockholm
Individual arrival in Stockholm and hotel accommodation. Enjoy a walk in the capital of Sweden and explore some of the numerous tourist attractions. In the evening there will be a welcome briefing and the delivery of bicycles (if booked).

Day 2: Stockholm – Södertälje, Södertälje – Mariefred (45 km)
The first stage of the tour will take you cycling along an ancient trading route that has existed since the Viking times along Lake Mälaren, the third largest lake in Sweden. Along this route, you will pass Drottningholm Castle, the residence of the royal family and a UNESCO site. Today you will ride on secondary roads up to Gripsholm Castle, which houses the national portrait collection: over 4000 works that trace the art of portraiture from the 1400s to present day. The history of the castle dates back to 1370, when Bo Jonsson Grip built a castle on a promontory that, after several expansions, became Gripsholm Castle. Towards the end of the day, you will arrive at Södertälje, located south of Stockholm, where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea through the Södertälje Canal lock. Overnight stay in Mariefred.

Day 3: Excursion to Selaön Island or Rest Day (50 km)
Visit Selaön Island with its runestones and 15th century cemetery or enjoy a rest day in Mariefred. Gripsholm Palace and other places of interest are definitely worth exploring. You could take a trip on the first Swedish museum train to Taxinge and return by boat (departures between July and mid-August, not included).

Day 4: Mariefred– Järna (60 km)
Today's tour will take you into the heart of pristine and remote nature reserves, through the extraordinary scenery of Sörmland. At this point numerous rivers and lakes have formed due to vast tectonic movements, but the altitude never exceeds 100 m. Once you reach the top of the hills, you will be rewarded with breathtaking views and a long descent. Your hotel is located in the small town of Järna, with its famous anthroposophical village with biodynamic gardens and distinctive architecture.

Day 5: Järna – Trosa (35 km)
Today's destination is the idyllic town of Trosa on the Baltic Sea, which is also used as a setting for many “Inga Lindström” films. You will then end the day with a stroll in the picturesque village, admiring the small alleyways, red houses, and wonderful water views. We recommend trying crabs, salmon or smoked fish in one of the delightful restaurants for dinner.

Day 6: Trosa – Stockholm (55 km)
Heading north and after a short ferry ride, you will arrive on one of the many islands of Stockholm. Enjoy the night in the capital with a typical Swedish dinner in one of the numerous restaurants in the city.

Day 7: Stockholm
After breakfast, end of services.

🙋 Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own bike?
Of course! You can participate in any tour with your own bicycle or rent one. However, we recommend renting because not all spare parts are the same, and only with our bikes can we guarantee the best mechanical assistance.
What kind of assistance will I have during the trip?
You will always have an emergency phone number to refer to. In self-guided trips, you should be able to perform minor repairs, like replacing a tube in case of a puncture, or fixing a dropped chain, but you can always count on local assistance for more serious breakdowns.
How do I know if a tour is within my capabilities?
We classify tours on a scale from 1 to 5 based on length, elevation, and complexity of the itinerary, but if you have doubts, contact us and we will help you find the most suitable journey for you.
What is the cost of renting bicycles?
The rental cost varies depending on the bicycle model and the duration of the tour. For some tours, we offer the possibility to rent different types of bicycles. During the purchase process for each route, you will be asked to indicate your preferred bike type and the corresponding price will be shown, so you can choose freely and without surprises.
Are rented bikes equipped with accessories like lights or bags?
Yes, rented bicycles are equipped with all necessary accessories to comply with road traffic regulations (lights, bell, etc.). A lock, repair kit, and a bag to carry everything you need for a day in the saddle are always included in the rental. Additionally, we offer the option to request extra accessories based on your needs.
