Need advice on easy-going sightseeing June 16 – 23 – that is, without much going actually :), have a bit of a problem walking long distances.
Staying in Regeringsgatan, close to Hötorget. I normally take SL access card for the whole period, it covers most transport means.
So far, I am planning
• Drottningholm by boat (at least one way, does it make sense to return by bus+train ?)
• Tram 7 to Skansen the day before Midsommar
• Cruise to Haga (it’s the shortest cruise), maybe an archipelago cruise with lunch another day?
• How do I get to a public beach, if there is any?
I got this as nearest – is it really fit for swimming? Any place to change, WC etc?

Is it already warm enough to bathe? Surely some compatriots are famous for walrus-bathing, but I do not go to such extremes :)
hi. just wondering if a -5 sleeping bag is enough for the sarek in early september. im thinking a -10 to be sure but some views would be appreciated.
cheers
hi,
i'm going to go to Vimmerby this summer. Last time I was there, there was a train route via Lingkoping (and , as I checked, there is such possibility now). But , as I checked connections in the Net, there is no such possibility in August. Does anyone there know whether there will be some changes in train routes or it is just problem with booking system ? Many thanx in advance

Me and my girlfriend are flying to Stockholm, stay there for 2 nights and than go traveling to visit familiy nearby Malmo. We have 4 days to get there. What route would you recommend? What places should we visit/spend some time? And by what means of transportation?
We were thinking maybe to go via Linkoping, is this a good idea? Is public transport a good way to get around or do you recommend renting a car for the trip?
Hi

My daughter is moving to Lund to work in a Montessori school there. I'll be flying over with her and staying for a month. Has anyone any suggestions on the most affordable place for the two of us to stay? We'd prefer some place in Lund, because we'd really like to walk everywhere. But if that's cost prohibitive, I'd of course appreciate any suggestions.
Looked up Drottningholm Palace and found out this:
Closed 4–11 June, due to the Royal wedding.
Take a note if you are heading there
By the way, since I am planning a trip later in June, has anyone tried the boat + entrance fare?

Then, I didn't really get what they mean by "Departs from: Stadshusbron"?
Does one exactly jump the bridge?!
Hi,
We would like to hike the kings trail. THe only problem is that we are short in time an we have only 5 or 6 days, wich will not allow us to go from abisko to nikkaluokta, then take bus from nikkaluokta to kiruna, and another bus back to abisko (where our car might be standing).
Has anyone an idea what the best possibility is to get back in Abisko in a 5 or 6 days time span?
Walking in a circle or taking a bus/taxi somewhere (and where?:))?
Thank you really much!

I know that it's a bit of a general and maybe laughable question but I've been hearing alot of bad things. I've read alot of good things and I was hoping to take a study abroad program at the university. Some of my family members seem concerned about terrorism and crime and assaults. Hopefully with some help I can show them replies and put their mind at ease would help. Any tips and suggestions for a foreigner coming to Sweden for a semester of school. Thanks !
I'm going to Uppsala next year, and I was wondering if there's any good gaybars there. Are there any good places to go? I'd prefer if they had a website so I can check it out first.
Is it possible to take a bike on the train or bus from Sundsvalld to Arlanda Airport? Any other suggestions for getting a bike to the airport.

OR What are the chances of buying a used bike in Upsalla? -- end of July this year.
Can any one tell the name a of a hat shop located in the Uppsala Centrum area. I bought a hat there back in 1992 and would like to buy another. Back then it was located close to where many buses stopped. It was on a pedestrian only street. Also if you cn give me their phone number and web site that would be helpful.

My daughter is studying in Uppsala, Sweden from August, 2008 for a year. I'd love to visit there during her stay, possibly some time at the beginning of 2009, for anywhere between 2 weeks to 3 months. Does anyone know where to investigate house swaps? I live in a beautiful area, right on the northern California coast. You can see the Pacific Ocean from my back yard. Great beaches and places to walk along the ocean or through the redwoods. I've a sweet 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with a large vegetable and flower garden, small pond with fountain and lovely neighbors. 4 miles outside of the town, but feels secluded. Any ideas or advice on how to look into this possibility would be greatly appreciated.
I`m student and I will come with my wife to Uppsala in January. I need a flat for whole semester from January to June.

Hi. I'm planning to spend a couple of months in Uppsala later this year and my return flight is booked for December 28th from Arlanda Airport to Amsterdam and then to Brazil. The problem is the flight leaves too early in the morning (06:45 am) and I'm afraid of not reaching the airport in time due to bad weather (i.e. snow). Are there frequent connections from Uppsala to the airport even in the winter? Should I change the departure time of my flight (or even the date)? Thanks in advance!

Is it better to travel from Stockholm to Uppsala via bus or train? What are the pros and cons? Do I see the same type of scenery whether I take the bus or the train? I'm spending a very brief time in the Stockholm area and the trip to Uppsala would be my only chance to see stuff outside Stockholm. If I have a Stockholm Card, will that cover my train fare or bus fare between the 2 cities ?
Hi there, Could anybody be able to tell me how to get from Vasteras airport to Uppsala University Hospital, the cheapest and fastest method, along with the approximate prices on a saturday? Please...

You can do it, but that would involve 1 or 2 vehicle changes according to SJ. Make your way down to either Gävle or... more
