Just beyond Häggeby there is a runestone by the side of the road.

Snowy Södermalm
We visited Södermalm, in the snow this time. It is somehow a very different place.
Brevik
We took a ride on Lidingöbanan, down to the boat stop at the end of the line, then walked back a few stops in the hope of finding lunch.

Karlberg Slott
I’d been meaning to go back to Karlberg Slott, having missed it last time I tried to get there. This time I approached from Västra Skogen. There appeared not to be much there, a large parade ground outside the castle and a map showing the location of a rune stone in the back garden. But I couldn’t find any way into the gardens, so perhaps they’re open over summer?
Västra skogen
The blue TBana line splits into the Akalla and Hjulsta branches at Västra Skogen, home of the longest escalator in the Stockholm metro system. Unfortunately theres not much else there, just a bunch of flats, a wasteland of motorway junction and the main post sorting office.
Rinkeby
Beyond the Kista Akalla park lies another string of urban expansion from around the same era as Kista, served by Rinkeby and Hjulsta TBana stations.
