Cycling Spots around Mälaren Lakes

Stockholm

The other favourite here is Mälaren. Which is situated on the inland side of the Archipelago. (It's divided by a floodgate in the middle of Stockholm). To do the whole trip around the “lake” you will cover over 400 k. But there are plenty of nice places to stay overnight on the road. Sweden By Bike >

2. Choosing when to book:

Stockholm in Summer

Summer is the best time of the year for travelling to Stockholm. Beautiful long bright evenings and mornings. Best months are July and August when the water is warmer. Bring wind jacket and arm warmers. With some luck, you bring them home without using them. The Midnight Sun is towards the end of June (you have to go more north for the real thing).

Summer Road Conditions

July is the best time for traffic. Most local people are on vacation and the August crowds of walking people in the centre has not yet turned up.

Travelling in Summer

Prices tend to rise a little in August. But Stockholm and Sweden are still very good if you come here with € or USD. The Swedish crown is low.
