Nytorps gärde, Municipal park in Kärrtorp district, Stockholm, Sweden.
Nytorps gärde is a public park in the Kärrtorp district featuring open meadows, wooded sections, and rolling terrain across an expansive area. It contains sports facilities including football fields, a running track, outdoor fitness stations, and a skate pool.
The park's name comes from a farm that once stood where the Nytorpsbadet swimming pool now exists, demolished in 1961. The grounds still contain remnants from World War II fortifications and Iron Age burial sites.
The site is named after a farm that once occupied this land and still bears traces of human settlement from different eras. Walking through, visitors encounter archaeological remnants that speak to the long-standing relationship between people and this place.
The area is easy to access on foot and provides ample space for relaxation as well as play and training activities. Visitors should expect damp paths during wet weather, especially in the wooded sections.
Within the grounds is Nypans humlepark, a dedicated area designed specifically for pollinators like bees and butterflies. This small garden demonstrates how green spaces can be intentionally created to support insects and local ecosystems.
