Brunnsviken

Description:

• Starting at Norrtull, just north of Odenplan, Brunnsviken bay stretches north to Frescati. This is a true oasis right in the middle of the city environment. As soon as you reach the path by the water, you are transported to the countryside. There's absolutely no sign of any traffic on the nearby motorway. It is green, beautiful and peaceful. To walk all the way around Brunnsviken takes approximately two or three hours. There are quite a few distractions along the way as well - the walk passes by swimming spots, cafés and Bergianska Trädgården's gardens, among other things. To get here, take the metro to Odenplan and walk north along Norrtullsgatan.
