Bicycle for 2 days along the Göta Canal, starting in Sjötorp, 68 km
A bike package that never leaves the canal. You pass 16 locks, the mini canal in Norrqvarn, and learn about the canal’s history in Sjötorp.
Cycle along the Göta Canal!
In olden days, oxen and horses tramped up the old gravel towpaths along the Göta Canal, towing sailboats towards the next lock. Today bicycles have replaced the beasts of burden, carrying tourists through the old canal environments, past locks and historical sights and the beautiful landscape.
Free from hills and cars
Bicycling along the canal is a joy – the only hills are at the locks, and the tree-lined boulevard on both sides of the canal shelter you from the sun and wind. Bicycling along the car-free towpath, observing the boaters on the water, is relaxing and exciting all at once. Above all relaxing, with plenty of opportunities to stop along the way. Have a snack or a meal at one of the many cosy cafés along the way!
