Train to Stockholm

Travel to Stockholm by train: comfortable, sustainable and easy to reach the Swedish capital.

Train to Stockholm

The Swedish capital Stockholm is a top choice for a city break in Northern Europe. It is the largest city in Scandinavia and is spread across 14 islands. Explore the narrow streets of Gamla Stan, take a ferry to one of the islands, admire some of the most beautiful metro stations in Europe, and don't forget to try a traditional fika while you're in Stockholm.

From the Netherlands, you can reach the Swedish capital with 2 changes. Board a train towards Germany just after lunch and take the night train from Hamburg to Stockholm in the evening. You still have time for breakfast on board before the train pulls into Stockholm. From Belgium, you can travel to Stockholm with the same number of changes.
