After a week with miserable weather, the sun finally came out again, and we had a day with a blue sky. Still way too cold for my liking as I once again made my way up the man made ski hill Hammabybacken for a look at the views towards Södermalm, Sickla and Hammarbyhöjden. I was dressed for Winter, more or less. Not that many people around on this visit, but I did meet a few people. The guy in the first photo walked up the same way I did next to the slalom hill. On the second and third photo, we see Hammarby sjöstad with the Sofia church at Vita Bergen as a backdrop. Next the Sickla lake at Nacka. Followed by Södra Hammarbyhamnen with a nice view of Stockholm in the background. The yellow apartment buildings sit on the top of another hill with good views over the city. It is known as Henriksdalshöjden. Then an architectural gem at Hammarbyhöjden, designed by Gert Wingårdh. Still some artificial snow left on the ski hill, as you can see. More views from here tomorrow.

That building, a gem indeed
What a beautiful adventure, even with the lingering chill! Your photos really capture the crisp light and sweeping views—looking forward to seeing more tomorrow!
Nice all these architectural views of Stockholm.
It was worth the climb.
You had brilliant views in every direction.
Artifical snow? It never melts? Well, you were on a steep climb and that resulted in some lovely photos. Thanks.
