Djurö National Park

The Djurö archipelago contains more than thirty islands and rocky islets spread across 24 square kilometers in Sweden's largest lake.

Established in 1991 through governmental proposition, the park protects an area that experienced minimal human settlement since the 1500s.

The islands reflect traditional Swedish maritime practices through their historical connection to fishing activities and natural resource management.

Visitors need boats to access the park, with Malbergshamn on the north shore serving as the primary natural harbor for landing.

The eastern and southern shores close from April to July to protect nesting birds, including ospreys, hobbies, and great black-backed gulls.
