Perched on a low glacial ridge above Sjövik, Höglundsåsen offers one of the finest viewpoints along stage 59 of the Sörmlandsleden. From the top you get sweeping views over the fjärdar leading toward Södertälje — with Brandalsund Castle visible across Hallsfjärden and, further ahead on the trail, the historic Viad manor (built in 1860).
