Round Barrow(s) in Södermanland
A mound with a view!
How to find it: Take the E4 south from Stockholm, drive some 90 km and take off at Tystberga, before Nyköping. Continue right or westwards approx 2 km to Bogsta. Drive south towards Nyköping on the old main road, but turn right after approx 1 km towards Runtuna. After less than 1 km there is lake Runnviken on the right, and the almost eerie sight of the imposing Uppsa mound on a hilltop to the left.
