Panoramic view of Stockholm

Sweden means blueberry pie, cinnamon buns and smorgasbord. The long history of the Vikings, Midsommar and the Lucia Festival. But also for idyllic expanses, water and untouched nature. Find out what your individual experience of Sweden will be on a cycling holiday with Eurobike. The tour takes seven days from Stockholm to Mälaren, one of Sweden’s largest lakes, through the Sörnland countryside and back to the capital along the Baltic Sea coast. Get an idea of the country of Inga

The fact that Sweden is an ideal destination for holidaymakers is only proven by the quality of the cycle paths and the well-developed network. The mild, not too hot summer temperatures also promise the best conditions for an unforgettable cycling holiday. For seven days you explore the green surroundings of Stockholm and of course the northern city itself on two wheels.

  • Cycling fun: The Swedes love cycling – and you can feel it especially on the well-developed cycle paths across the country. Cyclists are very welcome everywhere.
  • Stockholm – Venice of the North: As the start and end point of the tour, Stockholm scores with small cafes, green parks and typical Nordic lifestyle. The royal family’s Drottningholm Palace near the capital is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is also on the bike route.
  • Sweden’s small towns: Small towns like Mariefred or Trosa are reminiscent of the popular Inga Lindström films.

On the day of arrival you will have plenty of time to stroll through Stockholm. The next few days are filled with numerous kilometres on the bike – around 270. The daily stages are between 35 and 60 kilometres long and mostly run flat. Larger sections of water are bridged by ferry trips that take you across rivers and lakes. Thanks to the extensive tour material, which is also available with GPS data, you will be well prepared for your Scandinavian cycling adventure.

Itinerary at a glance

First-class cycling paths meet Swedish hospitality, whether on the way to Drottningholm Palace or to the town of Trosa. Explore the cafes and streets of Stockholm before heading to lakes, rivers, and coasts.

Take your first stroll through Sweden’s capital and explore some of many sights and tourist attractions.

Your first cycling day takes you along the third biggest lake in Sweden called ‚Mälaren’ and follows an ancient trade route dating back to the Vikings. On your way to Södertälje, on the island of Lovön, you will find Drottningholm Palace, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. Situated directly at and overlooking the lake, this beautiful palace is the place where the Swedish Royal Family was raised. Also worth a visit is a Chinese Palace from the 15th century. The cafe in the basement awaits with Swedish waffles and is a perfect place for a rest. Onwards by ferry towards Södertälje where typical Swedish scenery with fields and forests will amaze you. Sturehof Palace is a great place for a lunch break. The small town of Södertälje south of Stockholm is situated at the canal between Mälaren and the Baltic Sea.

On quiet side roads today’s route leads to ‚Gripsholm Palace’. Also the title of a book by Kurt Tucholsky, who lived in exil in Sweden and has found his final resting place in Mariefred. Mariefred and Gripsholm Palace are two main focal points in Royal Swedish history.

Today’s tour takes you right into the middle of untouched and remote nature reserves, through the amazing scenery of Sörmland. Atthis spot countless rivers and lakes were formed due to vast tectonic movements. Nevertheless the altitude is never higher than 100m.Once you have mastered the hills you are rewarded with stunning views and a long descent afterwards. Your hotel is surrounded by bio-dynamic gardens and characteristic architecture.

Your destination for the day is the idyllic Baltic Sea town of Trosa, which is also used as setting for many movies. Finish your day with a stroll through the picturesque village and enjoy the small alleys, red houses and wonderful views on the water. We recommend to try crabs, salmon or smoked fish in one of the nice, little restaurants for dinner.

Northward bound and after a short ferry trip later you return to one of Stockholm’s many islands. Top tip: take the overground ‚S-Bahn’ to Stockholm centre and in the afternoon cycle on lovely flat cycle paths along the water to Stockholm’s Southern island of Södernmalm. In the evening experience the great variety of restaurants.
