| Food |
| The park has many sit-down restaurants where you can eat and drink at a leisurely pace than quick-service stands. Kresjey's is a BBQ restauant, but they also have amazingly fresh fish dishes. Kryddhyllan is in the heart of the park, great for people watching. Tyrol Bakficka is a bar serving German sausages and offers an outdoor porch for crowd watching. If you prefer your food on the run, there are two large food courts with many options. Kvasten Food Court has Thai food, fish and chips, burgers, hot dogs, and langos (fried dough). Rue du Maroc Food court sells pizza, kebabs, hot dogs, and Mexican dishes. |

Go over Djurgårdsbron and follow Djurgårdsvägen past the Nordic Museum and on. You can also walk the path through Galärparken, along the waterfront past the Vasa Museum and the museum ships. Facts and Tips: A walk from Djurgårdsbron takes about 10 minutes, depending on how fast you go and how often you stop to enjoy the Royal Canal on the road.
By car:
As the park is in a congested area, it is highly recommended to use a park-and-ride and either walk or take public transportation. A suggested park-and-ride location is Parkaden on Regeringsgatan at NK (Goverment Street at NE). |

| TPR Notes |
|
Anyone who thinks a small park in the middle of a city with a small footprint cannot supply thrills should visit Grona Lund.
Grona Lund intertwines old and new rides and sometimes crams them right on top of each other.
The latest owners have made great strides to improve the park in recent years and hope to get approval for more changes in the near future. While Grona Lund has moved ahead with new rides they have also kept their iconic walkthrough haunted house and fun house (one of the best in the world). They also scatter posters containing the parks history, which is a nice touch considering the park is in close proximity to many of Stockholms historic areas. | |
