Hiking
The Kinda Canal is a waterway in Sweden, which, for most of its length, represents a widening of the Stångån River. The canal runs from Lake Åsunden through the lakes Ämmern, Järnlunden, Stora Rängen, Erlången, and Roxen to the Göta Canal.
The total length is approximately 80 km, of which 27 km were newly excavated or blasted out of the rock. The elevation difference of 52.5 m is overcome by nine lock systems with a total of 15 locks.
Plans for a transport route across the lakes existed as early as the mid-18th century.
