Sjalen Says: Ängsö is a small national park compared to most, but that's because it is on an island. Instead, it is one of Sweden's oldest, as it was made a national park already in 1909 and famous for its old meadows. In those days, no one understood that by stopping the farmer from...
Sjalen Says: Furusund is one of the most narrow points along the shipping lane that takes the huge Finland ferries in and out through the Stockholm archipelago, separating Furusund village (reached by bridges from the mainland) from the island of Yxlan. It is therefore well known (even...
gugi66 Says: I orderd a pizza soucerer, a big double pizza- tasted like crap. My wife orderd porkfile according to her it was ok but nothing special. We don´t recommend this restaurant it´s over prized and the food was under the standard for these prices..

gugi66 Says: A great resturant with exellent food nice atmosphere. I´v only eaten here once so I don´t have any favorite dish. But the Beef with mushrooms are quite good.
Furusunds värdshus: Customs house inn
Sjalen Says: Furusund's inn has been selected the fifth best restaurant in County Uppland recently and whilst I haven't tried it myself yet, be sure that I will as the location is hard to beat. I have passed it an incredible amount of time by boat as it is right along the famous Furusund...
Sjalen Says: Near the harbour is this cafe with a spacious outdoor seating area, which has a more than usual mix of good lunch sandwiches but also cakes and ice cream, and which prepare smoothies with seasonal flavours. The strawberry one is to die for with fresh Swedish...
Sjalen Says: Here at "the Pier", you will find yourself facing the harbour inlet and this means great seaside atmosphere. It is next to the guest harbour too so there will always be boats around you. The place has both lunch and dinners and some evenings there are various gigs and...
gugi66 Says: There is no problem to ride a bus in Norrtälje. There are several busses you can take.This bus 969 even goes to KÄRLEKSUDDEN, a beautiful beach in Norrtälje look at my oter pages of Norrtälje.
Sjalen Says: This is actually not a boat in action anymore, but in fact a restaurant! The s/s Norrtälje is now a well-known and popular restaurant with lunch offers and dinners (quite a few local dishes) but as I never ate there, it will have to illustrate the style of boat that can take...

Sjalen Says: The scenic "summer cottage islands" outside Furusund are nice. Yxlan is known for good swimming from its cliffs and not for a lot of sights itself. It is however the island you get to first by road ferry from Furusund on your way to Blidö and as scenic as many others, so you...
In an archipelago town, fishing is of course popular and there are thousands of islands to do it from, just make sure you have the relevant permission (tourist office or sports shops). You can also fly-fish in the river by this old pump house in the centre of town a lot of the season.

Dizzyhead Says: Here I did my army duty in Norrtälje, but it doesnt exist any more. I have spent 7 ½ months in this part of Sweden, and many nights in a tent with other tired and young men. My memories about Norrtälje, maybe arent the best, and I never was there during the summer.
gugi66 Says: If you want to get the most of Norrtälje wisit the Tourist information center. There you will find everything about Norrtälje.
Sjalen Says: As in many Swedish small towns with rivers, I just like to walk around and take in all the wooden houses. Don't forget to peak your head through gates along the streets. You will be rewarded with delightful inner yards like the one in my "bus tip". These tiny houses with...
Norrtälje is vastly overlooked by tourists, apart from those arriving by ferry from Finland and Estonia to the little Baltic ports outside town. The Stockholmers come in greater hoardes though, as 25...
