Ice skating around Stockholm is a great way to get outdoors and enjoy the natural beauty of the winter in Sweden. From pick-up to food to skating equipment, everything is taken care of so all that's left for you to do is to enjoy your new experience with a pro guide!
Additional Info
Public transportation options are available nearby
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
Remember that the weather conditions are out of our control, and there is no ice guarantee. If the ice conditions are not safe a winter hike will most likely be carried out instead, however last winter season we haven't had one single excursion on which we weren't able to skate :)
Dress for winter activity. Hat/beenie, gloves, 1 pair of warm socks are a must have! Think layers of clothes instead of very thick and warm ones. Downhill skiing pants and jackets are ok, thick running tights with wool long johns underneath. Avoid anything made of cotton (tee shirt and jeans).
Please email us your EU shoe sizes (37 -> 46) so we can prepare the equipment beforehand.
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
What To Expect
After gearing up at our base camp, we'll drive together to the best ice there is around Stockholm (can only be planned the day before).

At the end of the day, we'll drive back to our base camp.

5.00I did the shorter night time Nordic ice skating activity and my guide was Magnus. I had an amazing experience! I wish I had time to do the full day of skating. I had never skated on natural ice but Magnus is an expert and did a great job checking the ice and giving us skating tips. We went out on the Baltic Sea and briefly in Stockholm city near city hall. The provided dinner was very good too. Even if you aren’t a great skater, if you enjoy it you will like this. Highly recommend, absolutely worth it!
Wow. wow. wow.

5.00Truly unforgettable experience - couldn't recommend it enough. Did both the beginner day skate and the night skate and would do them both again in a heartbeat. Super well organised, incredibly knowledgable guides and scenary that will live rent free in my mind for the rest of my life. Just. Wow.

5.00What a great experience! Christian was a great guide, well organised, very informative and looked after our small group of 4 like we were family. The 14km trek around the lake was amazing and we really enjoyed our little snack stops and lunch. I was very impressed with Christian’s ability to get a fire going on the snow! We even stopped to see a rune stone. All round it was a great day made even better by our fellow companions and guide. Highly recommend!
