Today's swim was at the Träskbyträsket ("lake village lake"). Nice swim. The only thing was ... that the lake is in the middle of nowhere, and as I approached it, it became apparent that is surrounded by a swamp. Getting wet before getting wet in the lake.
Träskbyträsket is near Långvik, Kirkkonummi, far south from the main roads. Take the Hirsala road for the drive towards Långvik.
Coordinates: N 60.09429 E 24.54138.
Be careful out there. This is a not an easy place to go to, or necessarily a safe lake to swim at.

On and off-piste skiing on all continents, skiing into craters of live volcanoes, climbing, photography, and travel."
