What you need to know
Practical
Everyday services on the islands: where to buy food, collect medicine, fill up and dispose of rubbish. Ekerö centre has most things, Stenhamra, Skå and Kungsberga have shops of their own, and on Adelsö and Munsö it is sparser. Verified details only.
Looking for timetables? Buses, the commuter boat, the ferries and the Birka boats are gathered under Getting here and around.
