Södertörn is the name of the large peninsula south of Stockholm. The Sorunda area of Södertorn is a long-settled district, with place names, villages and farms which date back as far as 2,000 years. The parishes of Ösmo and Sorunda, alone, have yielded 7,500 ancient remains and monuments. The virgin forest at Tyresta may not be as old, but are interesting enough, botanical speaking, to have been declared a national park. There are many trails from Tyresta Village into the woods. The children�s undisputed favourite, is the �saga path� where so many of the stories of childhood come alive.

The southern part of Södertörn juts out into the open sea, without any archipelago in its way. The harbour city of Nynäshamn extends a warm welcome to holiday yachtsmen, as well as large ships from foreign ports. Or use Nynäshamn as a starting point in your exploration of the southern part of the Stockholm archipelago. There are plenty of scheduled ferries to choose from. Don�t miss the harbour restaurants and the fishermen�s shacks offering the very freshest fish. The tourist information centre is located at the railway station, near the harbour.
