Väddö skjutfält, Military training grounds in Stockholm County, Sweden
The Väddö skjutfält spans 400 hectares of land and 50,000 hectares of water area, featuring shooting ranges, training facilities, and coastal installations.
Established in 1939, the facility initially served as a training ground for Stockholm regional defense forces before becoming a key anti-aircraft artillery site in 1942.
The training area contains military roads named after regional historical figures and maintains educational facilities at Väddö kursgård for voluntary officer training.
Visitors need to contact the facility at 010-823 30 00 or exp-amf1@mil.se to verify access permissions and current training schedules before entering permitted areas.
The military restrictions have preserved natural habitats, creating reed-rich ponds and steppe-like environments that attract diverse bird species to the coastal lagoons.
