What you need to know
- Skating depends on the ice: the plowed track and skate hire open only when conditions allow, and skates are booked online only
- Sauna visits are booked online in 90-minute slots, and Thursday evenings are kept quiet, so leave young children at home then
- Canoe and kayak hire sits about 50 meters from reception, life jackets included, and you carry the boat a few meters to the water
About
Hellasgården is an outdoor center on Källtorpssjön, inside the Nackareservatet nature reserve. In summer there is a sandy beach with swimming jetties, canoe, kayak and SUP hire, minigolf and forest trails.
In winter the lake gets a plowed skating track of about 2.5 km when the ice allows, and there is a sledding hill across Ältavägen. A lakeside sauna, a café and a restaurant sit by the water.
