On a crisp autumn or winter day, Stendörren Nature Reserve along coastal Route 219 lets you walk across suspension bridges onto smooth granite archipelago islands and grill by the sea. While the indoor Naturum Stendörren building is closed for renovation until 1 May 2027, the nature reserve, all suspension bridges, trails and firewood-stocked barbecue areas remain open year-round.

Closer to the town centre, follow Åpromenaden past Nyköpingshus Castle and the Gert Fredriksson statue, or hike among 300-year-old pines in Ryssbergen Nature Reserve.

Ice skating, local sports and cafés

Rosvalla Arena hosts public ice skating, bowling and winter home games for Nyköpings SK (NSK) ice hockey, Onyx Floorball and IFK Nyköping — see upcoming fixtures on our Sports page. Warm up afterwards with lunch or pastries at Tovastugan or browse the Lunch guide.
