Steamboats. The steamboats which ply from Stockholm in every
direction are so numerous, and the maze of islands and water-ways
around the city is so complicated, that the traveller will at first be
somewhat bewildered. Before making any excursion, he should of course
consult the latest number of ‘Sveriges Kommunikationer’, and also the
map of the environs, and be careful to ascertain the starting-point of the
vessel. For the larger sea-going vessels the principal quays are Skeppsbron,
on the E. side of Staden (Pl. F, 4,5), and Blasieholms-Hamnen (Pl. E, F, 4),
adjoining the Grand Hotel and the JIuseum. For the smaller sea-going and
coasting steamers the starting-point is the Riddarholm Quay on the W.
side of that island, which lies to the \V. of Staden, whence most of the
Malar steamers and those bound for Gothenburg by the canal route also start.
A number of the smaller lake-steamers again have their usual berths on
the Munkbro and the Kött-Torg, on the. W. and S.tV. sides of Staden
(Pl. D, E, 5). The sea-going steamers will be found in the
Kommunikationer’ under the heads ‘Xorrut’, ‘‘Österut’, ’’SöderttC, and ‘ Vesterut’; see also
the heads ‘ Göta KanaV and ’■Mälaren’ The following is a short list of the
principal routes mentioned in the Handbook. To Gefle (p. 363) 4 times
weekly from Skeppsbron, and 6 times monthly from Karl Xll.’s Torget;
to Visby thrice weekly from Riddarholmen and once weekly from
Blasieholms-Hamnen and Klintehamn (comp. p. 377); to Kalmar (p. 391) twice
weekly from Riddarholmen, and once weekly from Blasieholms-Hamnen
(also by the Liibeck, Copenhagen, and Hothenburg steamers); to Gothenburg
via Kalmar, Karlskrona, Karlshamn, Malmö, and other ports three times
weekly from Riddarholmen; to Copenhagen weekly, touching at
intermediate ports, from Riddarholmen: to London fortnightly from
Skeppsbron. Steamers also sail occasionally to Hamburg, Amsterdam, Antwerp,
Havre, etc. — Steamboats on Lake Mälaren, see pp. 342-352.
Steam Launches (Angsh/par). Communication between different
parts of the city and the suburbs and immediate environs is maintained
by numerous small steam ferry-boats, which cross Lake Mälaren and the
Salfsjb (p. 352) in all directions at intervals of 3-15 minutes. The fares
vary from 3 to 15 o. according to the distance. The course of these
steamers is indicated in the Plan, and it will suffice to give here a list
of those plying to the Djurgård (p. 344; every 10-15 min.).
1. From the Slromparterre (Pl. E, 4) to Alkärret (Pl. H, 4); fare 10 o.
2. From Karl den Tolftes Torg tPl. E, 3, 4) to Alkärret; fare 10 ö
3. From the Räntmästaretrappa (Pl. F, 5, 6) to the Jernvågen at
Allmänna-Gränd (Pl. H, 1, 3, 4; fare 5 ö.) and to Doekan on Beckholmen (8 «>.).
1. From Skeppsholmen (Pl. G, 4, 5) to Allmänna-Gränd; fare 3 <>.
5. From Logårdstrappan (Pl. F. 1) to Blåporten (Kapiensudden; Pl. H,

Djurgårdsbrunn (15 ö.).
6, 7. From Gustaf’s III. Staty (Pl. E. F, 4) and from the

bank of the Djurgård, several times daily.
Several of the steamboat-routes to the most interesting points in the
Environs of Stockholm are described in various parts of the text of the
Handbook. The traveller is referred for more detailed information as to
