Nature in Sweden
A warm welcome from an American expat here in Stockholm! It gets pretty chilly up in these parts, so now is probably the best time to come visit. There are plenty of things to see and do in the city---culture, shopping, and strolling around one of the most beautiful cities in the world---but if you really want a taste of Sweden, nature exploration is a must.
The country is full of sprawling forests, with plenty of goodies growing underfoot. Depending on when you arrive, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and lingonberries may be in season. If you want a taste of forest, hiking, and berry picking right outside Stockholm, consider Tyresta National Park, which is accessible with Stockholm Public Transport (SL).
Merry berrying!
