During the high season, you can easily travel to some of the larger islands by SL bus from Slussen to Stavsnäs winter harbor. From there, connecting boat service with Stavsnäs boat taxi: To get to Bullerö and Rågskär, travel with Bullerölinjen. To get to Hamnskär and Skogavik, travel with Nämdölinjen.

Plan your trip with SL's travel planner and Stavsnäs boat taxi.

At other times you can reach the national park by boat or boat taxi.
