Omschrijving

In Motala, the Katarina Trail and the Birgitta Trail converge for a final joint day stage towards Vadstena. This serves as a symbolic reminder of the pilgrimages taken together by mother and daughter through Europe in the 14th century.

The trail largely follows gravel roads and asphalt roads but also includes some nature paths. During the tour, you will experience varied nature. At the edge of Långvrån's noble deciduous forest, there is an old stone circle that serves as a suitable rest spot. Be cautious of traffic on the road past Hagebyhöga Church. According to legend, pilgrims would walk barefoot from here out of reverence to their pilgrimage destination, Vadstena. (aug 2024)
