90-meter-long suspension bridge enhances access to nature

The 90-meter-long bridge over Nyforsviken was completed in 2023 and now serves as a northern entrance to the national park and is an integral part of the natural progression through the park. The bridge is designed with a straight alignment without supports and constructed with pre-tensioned tie rods drilled into the rock, stabilized by concrete bridge sections, while the railing is made of stainless steel – robust materials that ensure minimal material consumption and long lifespan. The new arrival facilities include a larger main entrance from the west and a smaller entrance from the east. The arrival at the main entrance offers parking spaces for cars, motorcycles, tourist buses, etc., and is connected to a new information plaza and a network of trails, including one of Sweden's longest hiking trails, Sörmlandsleden. The arrival from the east occurs through an open cultural landscape, and here the parking area is designed for cars and bicycles, and is adjacent to a small cluster of older buildings, including Alby Friluftsgård and the Rectory.
