It's advisable to check local bus schedules to Södertälje and plan for the remaining distance.

Generally, dogs are welcome on trails in natural areas in Sweden, but they should always be kept on a leash, especially during certain times of the year (March 1 to August 20) to protect wildlife. Please ensure your dog is well-behaved and that you clean up after them to maintain a pleasant environment for all visitors.

Families can enjoy a pleasant walk through the forest to the barbecue area, where they can cook outdoors. The clear water and natural surroundings offer opportunities for nature observation. Fly fishing is also an option for older children. The well-maintained paths and bridges make for enjoyable strolls.
