You use this guide

Using this guide, you can go shorter or longer distances between Stockholm and Uppsala or vice versa.

It is not a general manual in outdoor life, pilgrim technology or pilgrim theology.

What distinguishes The ginger route from many other joints is that it lacks a distinction in the terrain. Within the towns around Stockholm and Uppsala there are cycling and walking routes, in between the trails are searching for forest trails or old, crooked roads and sometimes follow some other routes such as Upplandsleden. The simplest thing is if you go into a group with an experienced “stigefinner”, but that should not be necessary.

Bus and train connections are good in these areas. You can use the guide in many ways:

Stay with a Stage

Go to Sigtuna, the central goal of the joint, from the south or north

(The guidance is in both directions)

Go all the way, maybe even a day trip from Sigtuna

Go as part of a life project. The idea is that the trail will be part of the European network of pilgrimage routes to Canterbury, Nidaros (Trondheim), Rome and Santiago de Compostela.

The first route mainly goes on paved roads and walkways.

This first stretch is not very backy.
