Cities close to Stockholm to visit in a day

I think that this question will be closed as primary-opinion based, but still want to add that the best way to investigate a country is avoiding the trourist traps and select not first option you can find.

I suggest you the Eskilstuna city, there are a lot of museums there, zoo and park recreation zone you can walk in, and it is situated not very far from Stockholm: SJ (the largest train operator in Sweden) site is giving travel time near the one hour from Stockholm.

Yes - Eskilstuna is a nice option. The obvious ones near Stockholm (that some may consider tourist traps) are:

  • Vaxholm (reachable by bus or boat)
  • Mariefred (with the interesting Gripsholms Castle)
  • Sigtuna (old city with several medieval church ruins)

Other options are:

  • Uppsala (with a cathedral and old royal burial grounds)
  • Strängnäs (nice old small city centre next to Mälaren with old church)
  • Norrköping (if you like old industrial areas this is a must)
  • Trosa (small coastal - not reachable by train though)
  • Arboga (small and cozy by a canal)
