Hiking

Anyone coming to Stockholm for the first time should visit Gamla Stan in any case. Gamla Stan is, so to speak, the original cell of Stockholm. From here, the city spread. Today, Gamla Stan connects the northern district of Norrmalm with the southern district of Södermalm (to which Gamla Stan belongs administratively). By the way, the island on which Gamla Stan is located is called "Stadsholmen", even though the name is rarely mentioned in road maps.

On the small and lively island of Gamla Stan, the old town of Stockholm has cobbled streets and buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries. Sights include the medieval-style St. Nikolai kyrka and the Stockholm Palace, the official residence of the king.
