Bergs Slussar is the Göta Canal's largest flight of locks and one of Sweden's most famous engineering structures. The imposing lock system, almost a kilometer long, is a well-visited attraction in the small town of Berg am See Roxen, around 10 kilometers north of Linköping.

Worth a visit, even outside opening hours! A very impressive lock on the Göta Canal. We went down the canal by bike, a beautiful region!
