Vreta kloster - Borensberg, Birgittaleden, St. Birgitta Ways

The stage between Vreta Abbey and Borensberg follows the walking and cycling paths along the Göta Canal. Along the trail, you can enjoy both beautiful cultural and natural environments.

Before you continue your journey, don't miss the Berg Locks with their high lock staircases down to Lake Roxen. Along the Göta Canal, you will then walk through Sweden's longest avenue along the old towpath to Borensberg. Almost there, you'll find a nice hostel that gladly welcomes pilgrims. It's also a great spot for swimming. There are many interesting sights with informational signs, and you will pass several lovely rest spots. In the summer, there are eateries and accommodations along the canal. In Berg, Ljungsbro, and Borensberg, there are grocery stores, cafés, restaurants, and accommodations. (aug 2024)
