Tips from locals
Långholmen is right next to Hornstull, and worth visiting for the nice atmosphere. Do visit the old prison-turned café, later on restaurant and hotel.
This idyllic island is a popular spot for picnics, swimming, and recreation for Stockholmers and visitors alike, but this wasn’t always the case.
