Eskilstuna

Walkable Swedish city on the River Eskilstunaån, with a centre full of cafés and restaurants and water close at hand. Eskilstuna sits between Lake Hjälmaren and Lake Mälaren in Södermanland County, roughly west of Stockholm, and takes its name from Bishop Eskil of the historic Tuna diocese. The city has a substantial Sweden Finn community and draws independent travellers looking for an accessible regional centre away from the capital.
