Behind Bogesunds Castle, 5.5km southwest of Vaxholm town, this pleasant STF hostel has a pretty, farmlike setting. There's a decent guest kitchen, but you'll need to get groceries in Vaxholm. Bus service to the hostel is infrequent even in summer; bus 681 departs Vaxholm's Söderhamnsplan at 6.44am, 10.50am, 2pm, 5.12pm and 6.46pm Monday to Friday, and 8.12am, 11.09am, 1.49pm and 5.49pm on weekends.
