Stegesund-Hästholmen

Stegesund-Hästholmen is an island, sometimes considered a pair of islands, in the Stockholm archipelago in Sweden. Stegesund-Hästholmen is situated in Vaxholm Municipality and Stockholm County. Hästholmen and Stegesund are separated by an artificial channel, constructed in 1899, and connected by a bridge. The island has a permanent population of about 20 people.
To the north, west and south, Stegesund-Hästholmen is separated from the islands of Resarö, Edholma and Vaxön by the winding northern section of the Kodjupet strait, whilst to the east it is separated from the island of Skarpö by the much narrower Stegesundet strait. The artificial channel between Stegesund and Hästholmen is only navigable by very small boats, such as dinghies and canoes.
Stegesund-Hästholmen has no road connection to the mainland or other islands. It is served throughout the year by passenger ships of the Waxholmsbolaget, which call at either the Vikingsborg pier or the Stegesund pier, providing a connection to Vaxholm town and Stockholm city.
