Strolling by the river is always a good idea. You can also see the castle and take photos from this angle. You can also go very close to the water.

Strömsholm Slott is, a royal palace, which sits beside the Strömsholm Canal. Cycle its towpaths, enjoying waterside views. The palace grounds offer historical sights and gardens. It's a scenic destination, blending culture with outdoor exploration, a perfect rest stop on your ride.

The castle on the headland in Lake Märlaren has a lot of history to offer. The very well-kept grounds and the building now serve as a conference venue for events.

Nice Castle in beautiful surroundings adjacent to Lake Mälaren. There is possibilities to take a bath or use one of several fire places. Some days a restaurant is open and Herrgården is a hotel.
