Explore hills and landscapes linked to trolls and fairies

Discover the many Vaesen of Swedish folklore

Hear tales of magic, love, death, and seasonal traditions

Experience both light and dark aspects of folklore

Step into the mysterious world of Swedish folklore on a guided journey through the countryside surrounding Stockholm. Explore the hills where trolls were believed to live and see the shallow pits where the Älvor, or fairies, were said to mill their grain. Accompanied by a folklore expert, you will discover the legends of the many Vaesen of the North, including trolls, Huldra, Näcken, Skogsrå, the lake spirit known as Rå, the Mara, and others with origins tracing back to Viking times. Hear captivating tales of encounters with these beings, from trolls drawing travelers into the mountains to lake spirits luring victims into the water, while uncovering the deeper meaning of Scandinavian folklore and its connection to daily life, love, death, and the cycles of the seasons.

During the tour, the stories take you through a rich tapestry of Swedish traditions, including magic, marriage rituals, midsummer, Halloween, and Christmas folklore. Explore both the light and darker sides of the myths, from helpful spirits like the church grim to the terrifying Marling and the darker uses of bones and blood in ancient rituals. You will hear eerie tales of the Nacken and his irresistible fiddle, the lost souls in the mist seeking to drag humans into damnation, and other chilling legends. This immersive journey provides a unique insight into the Scandinavian imagination, blending history, myth, and the natural landscape into an unforgettable experience.
