Stora Trutskär is located in the central part of Kalix archipelago about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) east of Storön.

Facilities include a hosted cabin, playhouse and playground for children, outdoor grills and barbecue house.

A large storm in 1982 threw down a lot of trees on the east side, and they have been replaced by brushwood.

Visitors may camp and make a fire if they bring firewood, but not directly on the rocks.

They may hike, pick berries and mushrooms and fish, but must not harm the flora and fauna.
