What you get

    About this experience

    Trade the city streets for untouched wilderness just outside Stockholm. Step into Bogesund’s hidden “troll forests,” where towering pines, moss-covered ground, and quiet coastal views create a landscape few visitors ever experience. Your guide leads you along scenic trails once used by Vikings, sharing stories, nature insights, and simple outdoor skills along the way. Gather around the fire to cook Swedish meatballs over open flames and enjoy a traditional Swedish fika with coffee or tea. From mid-May to September, bake your own cinnamon rolls over the fire and enjoy them fresh in the forest. From October to mid-May, experience cold-water floating in the Baltic Sea. Wearing a thermal suit, you’ll float effortlessly, warm, safe, and relaxed. This small-group experience blends nature, food, and adventure into one memorable day; no matter the season.

    Unimaginable fun!

    Unforgettable! My daughter and I were looking to immerse ourselves into the Swedish outdoors and we did so magnificently! The guides, Aske, Racquel and Lucas were kind, accommodating and knowledgeable from beginning to end. Pick up was easy and convenient. The hike was a doable 5k. Chatting and sharing experiences was endearing. A fantastic Swedish lunch was perfection after multiple FIKA enjoyments. I would have paid more if they had asked me. Worth every penny for an all day event. Small private group as it is off season. We laughed and shared our lives with strangers who were exceptionally kind❤️a must do adventure.

    Response from the operator: Hey Joanne! Thanks so much for the positive feedback, it means a lot to us. We're delighted to hear that you had a great time with us, and you are most welcome back for another adventure!

    Must Do Activity in Sweden

    Our day with was unforgettable. The three guides (Aske, Racquel, Lucas) were genuinely kind and attentive throughout, making the whole day very fun. We started with a beautiful hike, then experienced the floating in the Baltic Sea—something I’d never done before and absolutely loved. We were picked up and dropped off in Stockholm. The lunch was delicious: moose meatballs with mashed potatoes and lingonberries, perfectly Swedish. Spending the day with my mom, guided by such thoughtful people in such a beautiful place, made it truly special. Highly recommend!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your kind review! We are so glad to hear that you and your mom had a wonderful time with us. We would absolutely love to have you back with our team for another adventure!

    Hike and cold water floating

    had such an amazing experience on this tour, it was absolutely worth it! The hike was incredibly beautiful and not too difficult, which made it really enjoyable. The scenery was stunning and the whole experience felt very special. The food was delicious and more than enough. Our guide, Aske, was fantastic. He was incredibly kind, patient, and shared so many interesting facts along the way. He explained everything clearly and calmly, especially during the cold water immersion with the survival suits. That part was such a unique and beautiful experience. He made us feel completely safe the whole time and gave us a lot of confidence knowing he was there for anything we might need. I highly, highly recommend this tour. It was truly unforgettable!

    Response from the operator: Hey Alexa! So happy to hear that you enjoyed your winter hike. As a close-knit company, we strive to curate a comfortable, relaxing environment on our adventures. Thank you so much for leaving a review, it really lets us know where our team shines. Should you ever find yourself near the archipelago again, we'd love to have you back for another experience with us! Thanks again and hope to see you in the future, Lucie and Skärgårdens Kanotcenter Team

    Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Stockholm.

    How much does Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating cost?

    +

    Prices start at $154 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Stockholm usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Stockholm is not rushed.

    Is Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Stockholm, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Stockholm can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Stockholm and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Stockholm: Hike, Forest Lunch and Cold-Water Floating start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Stockholm within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Stockholm?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Stockholm experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Stockholm: Walking Tour of the Old Town, Best of Stockholm: Small Group Walking Tour (Max 10, 3 Hours), Vasa Museum Guided Tour, Including Ticket & Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Stockholm?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Stockholm?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
