The tour starts at Hornstull, where the pulse of Södermalm meets the water at Liljeholmsviken. Follow the bike path north across Västerbron – a classic Stockholm route with sweeping views of Riddarfjärden, City Hall, and Kungsholmen. On the other side of the bridge, roll down towards Fridhemsplan, one of Kungsholmen's lively hubs with cafés, shops, and plenty of city life.
From Fridhemsplan, continue calmly up Fleminggatan until you reach Rörstrandsgatan. Here, the character changes immediately – traffic becomes minimal and the street is lined with restaurants, outdoor cafes, and older houses in the Vasastil style. It is one of the city's most bike-friendly and pleasant thoroughfares, perfect for a relaxed pace.
At the top of Rörstrandsgatan, you pass Birkastan and continue behind Karlberg Palace and along the green areas by Karlberg Canal. Here, the surroundings become more open and peaceful, with water, trees, and walking paths all around.
The last few minutes take you through the southern parts of Solna before you reach Karolinska Institutet and Karolinska Hospital – the university campus and hospital complex that mark the end of the tour.
