Geography and Transportation
Bagarmossen is located southeast of central Stockholm. Bagarmossen neighbours the Skarpnäcks gård district to the south and west, Kärrtorp to the northwest, and the nature reserve Nackareservatet in Nacka Municipality to the east.
Bagarmossen is served by the Bagarmossen metro station, which is located along the green line 17. When the station opened in 1958, it was a surface station and the terminus of line 17. When line 17 was extended to Skarpnäck in 1994, this included a new underground station in Bagarmossen, replacing the old surfaced one. Bagarmossen is also the terminus of the 161 bus line to Midsommarkransen.

Famous quotes containing the words geography and and/or geography:
“The totality of our so-called knowledge or beliefs, from the most casual matters of geography and history to the profoundest laws of atomic physics or even of pure mathematics and logic, is a man-made fabric which impinges on experience only along the edges. Or, to change the figure, total science is like a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“Ktaadn, near which we were to pass the next day, is said to mean “Highest Land.” So much geography is there in their names.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
