On May 22, BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY DAY is celebrated all over the world.
The day, established by the UN, has been celebrated since 2017 in Sweden.
At Sälstationen we have chosen to organize activities all summer long with a focus on this important theme! Located in the middle of a nature reserve and by the sea in the beautiful Stockholm archipelago, we offer a place to truly experience the diversity of nature.
Here you can look at insects, see wild bees and dragonflies, hike in a primeval forest, explore the sea, protect bats or just be in a healing nature.
We offer various programs for both families with children and adult groups, so that everyone can take part in biodiversity in their own way.
The experience includes vegetarian and organic meals that promote biodiversity. Welcome to experience nature for real!
