You pass several lakes (don’t forget your swimming clothes) and further nature reserves with some great views of the surroundings. Your first hiking day ends in Tyresö.

Once you reach lake Kvarnsjön you are in an area with great geological and zoological values. The trail leads you further along lake Getaren.
