Róska

Róska is a small, uninhabited island located in the Baltic Sea, off the coast of Sweden. It is part of the Stockholm archipelago, situated within the municipality of Värmdö. The island is characterized by its rugged coastline, rocky outcrops, and sparse vegetation, typical of many islands in this region. Its relatively small size and lack of permanent inhabitants mean that Róska remains largely untouched by human development.

The natural environment of Róska is important for local wildlife, particularly seabirds that use the island as a nesting ground and resting place. The surrounding waters are also rich in marine life. Access to Róska is typically by private boat, and it is not a designated tourist destination. Its remoteness and natural state make it an area of interest for ornithologists and those seeking solitude in nature. The island's geological features are also of interest, reflecting the glacial history of the Baltic Sea region. Its name is thought to have Norse origins, though the exact etymology is debated among local historians.
