Self-Guided Ice Skating

Self-Guided Ice Skating Outside Stockholm City

During the winter, Stockholm offers some of the best ice skating on natural ice in the world! All the locals are doing it, so why not do as a local and create your own self-guided ice skating adventure! If you have some ice skating experience, why not let us kit you out and point you in the right direction?!

Enjoy a day on the ice, without having to prepare anything yourself!

Our knowledge, your experience!

We will provide you with the how, the where and the equipment, all you need is the enthusiasm and a little experience.

We will provide:

• HOW – detailed map and a description of the route and printed information about how to nordic ice skate.
• WHERE – instructions how to get to the best plowed track for the day
• EQUIPMENT:
  • Day pack/rucksack
  • Our delicious ‘classic outdoor lunch’ to keep you well fueled and smiling
  • Hot and cold drinks
  • Seat mat so you can rest wherever you please
  • Ice skates and boots
  • Helmet
  • Ice claws

We will also advise you on the ice conditions for that day and share our local insider knowledge and experience with you to make the day easier and more enjoyable.

For safety reasons, we will be directing you to one of Stockholm’s plowed ice skating tracks.  If you do not want to skate on a plowed track, then you should either join one of our guided tours or choose equipment rental, depending on your experience skating.

If you are inexperienced skating on natural ice, we will give you some useful tips before you set off too, however, if you are beginners we do recommend you join our ‘Introduction Tour’ before thinking about going it alone.
