Discover Edith's path

Eating seaweed - can you do it? Do you want to know why seaweed is the lifesaver of the Baltic Sea and what you can do to make the sea feel better? Please help remove fine filamentous algae from the stones. Then the seaweed can attach more easily and grow large. Use the brush hidden in the trees…

About Edith

Here you can also find out lots of exciting stories about Edith, who was homeless in Stockholm in the 19th century and had to move here to Gålö. Read her letter to find out more.

The letter is in Edith’s letter chest, see on the map where it is buried. Write your letter to the children of the future and put it in the coffin, you are now part of Gålö’s history and future. Also pass Snus-Ljunglöf’s cabin, you have to look for the house ruin.

Stand in his living room and think about what it was like to be a snuff maker.

Educational materials for schools

The Archipelago Foundation wants children and young people to discover, experience and take part in the unique archipelago and to understand that it is something that belongs to everyone and that we all have to care about.

The training site consists of a nature trail with various activities. Visit the archipelago for a day with the students and then work on experiences, discoveries and insights at the school after the visit.

Camping weekend in a tent

Nice and helpful staff, fresh service houses. Bonus for the music quiz in the bistro in the evening, which also served a good buffet. Beautiful and relaxing environment, 45 minutes from town. You can come back here and camp at short notice!

Incredibly nice place!

We spent two days on Gålö at a conference in extreme heat, but we had a really good experience! Great hiking trails and surroundings, good food and nice accommodation 👌

Was there on a class trip with my son's class. Luxurious, Peaceful and quiet. The cabins we rented were very fresh and equipped with everything you needed. The feeling that I want to stay here, when you stepped into the cabins was palpable. Superb.
