Baggviken on Mjältön

Published

Jakob:

The clouds were rainy but we made the short leg down to Baggviken on Mjältön, Sweden's highest island (236 m above sea level). Not very crowded between the boats in the sheltered little lagoon.

Mjältön's top is surrounded by cobblestone fields, seawalls from the time just after the ice age when the top was just a small seal in the sea.

A large part of Mjältön's rocky beaches are red from rapakivi granite, so are the surrounding islands. A couple of pictures are from Önnskär just east of Mjältön.
