Roadtrip 2014: Going from Rindö to Vaxholm, part 1

Next to the island Rindö is Vaxholm. A well known tourist place in the summer. Decided to go check it out and see if I could find a nice spot for the evening. Car ferry between Vaxholm and Rindö in the Stockholm archipelago.

I think I will do two post about Vaxholm, this is the first part.

Here waiting for the ferry that will take me over to Vaxholm.

The weather showed it´best side. Lots of motorbikes out riding too.

Tried to find a place to park the car (for free) and then use the Miyata Bike to go sightseeing. There were not that many places you could park the car for free, but found some places i bit further from city of Vaxholm.

This was a nice place. Right next to a small beach. There were not many beaches here in Vaxholm.

After have checked out the city I went look for a nice place to sleep for the night. Could it be found? Here you could only park 4 hour at a time.. I later found a good place, but íll keep it to myself for know.

Other side of the water, see the picture above.

Ingenjörvägen = Engineeringroad, since I´m an engineer i took a picture of this. :)

Back to the car. Needed to charge the phone.

Roadtrip 2014: Oscar-Fredriksborg

In the island Rindö: Looking for a good spot to sleep I found this place! Oscar-Fredriksborg

Here´s a map over the place

I parked the car right next to the Oxdjupet. I think the Toyota enjoyed the scenery.

On the other side of the "water" you could see som shooting tower or whatever.

There were lots of cars here. I later found out that there was a guide showing the inside of the old military place.

Here you see a better view of the small "neck"

Boom shakala. Big boom canon. I would not like to invade this area..

Look, the big ferrys going to finland and Estland going this route.

Yes we all have to way to each other.

I then saw some fish in the water. Can you see it?

Here I´m lookin into the old military "place" inside the mountain. You can see a port on the other side where people enter this area..

Well, it sure was wearth visiting. This is the good stuff about scouting for a place so sleep. You always see something interesting on the way. I decided to not sleep here, so therefore I continued.
