Hornsbergs strandpark, Urban waterfront park in Kungsholmen, Sweden
Hornsbergs strandpark stretches over 700 meters along the northern waterfront of Kungsholmen, offering three extending piers and a curved promenade. The space includes outdoor fitness equipment, solar-heated showers, barbecue areas, and public restrooms throughout its length.
This site was once industrial land before transforming into a public park in 2012 as part of a major urban development project. The transformation marked Stockholm's shift toward reclaiming waterfront areas for community use.
Moa Martinson Square features stone-carved literary quotations that connect the space to Swedish writers and their words, inviting people to pause and read.
Visit when the weather is nice to enjoy the outdoor spaces and swimming areas comfortably, as conditions are best in warmer months. The park is easily accessible on foot and accommodates visitors with different mobility needs throughout its layout.
The three piers extend into Ulvsundasjoen lake, each offering different vantage points for watching Stockholm's western sunsets from the water. Each pier attracts its own type of visitor and experience.
