Description
Section 25 takes you from the Gånstagården Farm outside Enköping through the forest down to Lake Mälaren and on to Boglösa. On the way, you can take a detour to nature reserve Hemsta, a large area that is home to many rock carvings, which is well worth a visit (Walk 25:2). The main trail, here part of Walk 25:1, initially follows an easy-to-walk exercise trail for just over 2 kilometres. You’ll continue for a further 3 kilometres on forest paths, and then on forest roads for cars, before the trail splits. Turn left, and walk a few kilometres on a path before passing country road number 512, and the detour to Hemsta.
Walking across open farmlands, you’ll eventually reach the country road to Boglösa. A few hundred metres further up the road by a barn, where the trail leaves the road again, the section ends.
Difficulty level: Medium, easy-to-walk exercise trails, then paths and forest roads for cars.
