Expedition

The trip started with a 50km bus ride through the nice country side of southern Stockholms län, I finally reached Lövhagen, the last station on this line. By this time, I was the only passenger in the bus. From Lövhagen, it is a nice 1.7km promenade to Knappelskär. The hash point was at the highest place of the rock, but easy to reach by a small path. I arrived there at about 14:15.

After eating my lunch, I started exploring the peninsula with its different rock formations. I thought that a map that I saw earlier mentioned a cave. But all I could find was a 1m deep hole in the rock. I don't think, this qualifies for a cave.

At 16:20, I left the site. Since the last bus left from Lövhagen at 16:00, I chose to walk back to the train station in Nynäshamn. There is a very nice scenic road that curls along the coast. After a nice 6km walk, I reached the station where the train already waited for me. 90 minutes later, I was home again.

  I wonder, how long it took to drill this hole.
