The Göta Kanal : a river cruise on one of the wonders of Sweden

Dubbed “the blue rib­bon of Swe­den” and con­sid­ered one of the great­est won­ders of the coun­try, the Göta Kanal con­nects Lake Vän­ern to Söderköping, locat­ed on the east coast of the coun­try. There are a host of ideas for a water­way cruise adapt­ed to everybody’s pref­er­ences, whether for a one-way or return trip. Let your­self be enthralled by the series of 7 locks in Berg, allow­ing you to cov­er a height dif­fer­ence of 18 metres between the canal and Lake Rox­en. You can even vis­it the canal muse­um in Sjö­torp before your depar­ture to dis­cov­er a per­ma­nent exhi­bi­tion on this ear­ly nine­teenth cen­tu­ry building.
