Ostersund Travel Guide

Sweden

Östersund is a Swedish city of 49,806 people in central Sweden, on the shore of Lake Storsjön. It serves as an important regional centre for the surrounding area and is set in a part of the country known for long, cold winters and short, mild summers.

Most air travellers arrive via Åre Östersund Airport, the airport serving the city. Östersund is not a beach-focused destination, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so trips here are better planned around the city and its inland setting.
