Utö to Ålö Connector (Southern Archipelago) — Stockholm Archipelago Trail

01:14

4.79km

20m

Hiking

The Utö to Ålö section is a short walk along a gravel road through an active military firing range. It takes approximately 90 minutes to cross, and it’s not an area to explore - you must stay on the gravel road only! Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times, and camping is not allowed. The route is not marked, but the road ahead is clear and easy to follow.

The section starts either at “Gula Villan” on Utö and heads south, or if your journey begins from Ålö, it starts just south of the Ålö Bridge and heads north.

The Stockholm Archipelago Trail (SAT) is a waymarked hiking trail that connects over 20 islands, accessible by a public ferry network. You can choose to spend a day at a time on the trail, connect nearby islands in conveniently grouped sections, or hike the SAT as a thru-hike for the full experience. You can find the entire route as planned stages in this Collection:

Ålö Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Ålö Bridge is the only public land crossing between the very close, but seperated islands of Utö and Ålö. If you continue onto Utö you're entering the military range, and must keep strictly to the gravel road until you reach the northern boundary of the range.
