Rowing in Stockholm

By the Watta Team · Updated March 2026

Stockholm is built across 14 islands, and its waterways provide a spectacular setting for rowing. Sweden has a growing rowing culture, and Stockholm's clubs train on Lake Mälaren and the sheltered waters around Djurgården. The city's strong fitness culture means Concept2 ergs are widely available, and indoor rowing is popular through the long Scandinavian winters.
