We loved watching the shores of lakes dotted with little wooden houses with saunas and private docks.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We didn&#8217;t have the time to try out this activity around Stockholm, which we were really looking forward to. There are, of course, several options for kayaking around Stockholm. From the<strong>island of Vaxholm<\/strong> (1h from Stockholm) you can book a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.fr\/stockholm-l50\/stockholm-visite-guidee-de-2-h-en-kayak-t45120\/?partner_id=0LXQSML&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;cmp=stockholmautourkayak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kayak excursion<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d like to go further afield, here&#8217;s the information shared by an expatriate friend (thanks, Coline, if you&#8217;re passing by) that we&#8217;re keeping preciously for our next stay in Stockholm.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can go to <strong>the island of Grinda<\/strong> (same company as for Vaxholm), 2 hours from central Stockholm, including a 4-hour round trip, to <a href=\"https:\/\/grinda.se\/en\/aktiviteter\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/grinda.se\/en\/aktiviteter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rent kayaks<\/a> and tour the island.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Sauna_Swedens_favorite_activity\"><\/span>8. <strong>Sauna: Sweden&#8217;s favorite activity<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>sauna<\/strong> (Bastu in Swedish) is one of Sweden&#8217;s favorite year-round activities. In the Swedish countryside, every wooden house comes with a sauna. A small room is heated to between 70 and 100 degrees Celsius, with very low humidity (around 20%). After a short session of around <strong>15 minutes<\/strong>, the Swedes happily jump into the adjoining lake.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Around Stockholm, to enjoy a traditional sauna in beautiful surroundings, we recommend a visit to the Hellasgarden nature park, south-east of Stockholm. This sauna was recommended to us by a friend of my sister&#8217;s (again) who lives in Stockholm. It&#8217;s best to reserve your day and time slot <a href=\"https:\/\/hellasgarden.se\/en\/aktiviteter\/bastu\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/hellasgarden.se\/en\/aktiviteter\/bastu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>. Approx. 110 SEK (\u20ac9) per person for 2 hours. Don&#8217;t forget to bring your own towels (or rent them from reception).  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>How do I get there? ! The sauna is located in <strong>the heart of nature<\/strong>, next to a lake and easily accessible by public transport, just 20 minutes away by bus (bus 401 leaves Slussen every 15 minutes)! A final word of advice: get there early on weekends, as it can get crowded.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are many well-marked <strong>hiking trails<\/strong> around the lake.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"6c7478\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #6c7478;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" data-id=\"24820\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-1024x771.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24820 not-transparent\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-1024x771.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-400x301.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-1200x904.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-512x386.webp 512w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-300x226.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-768x578.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-1536x1157.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_182515076-scaled.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"252324\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #252324;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" data-id=\"24864\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-1024x771.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24864 not-transparent\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-1024x771.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-400x301.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-1200x904.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-300x226.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-768x578.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-1536x1157.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/PXL_20230719_202008251-scaled.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Skyview_take_to_the_skies\"><\/span>9.
