    During a hike along the Göta Canal you can not get lost. One follows the gravel path and car-free towpath and has the
    Channel always next to you. The distance between mountain and Borensberg is 20 km.
    Along the way there are several rest areas, cafes, restaurants for lunch
    as well as access to toilets.
    The Göta Canal is one of Sweden's largest structures of all time. He
    extends from Sjötorp on Lake Vänern to Mem on the Baltic Sea. The
    The entire route is 190 km long, of which 87 km are dug by hand.
    There are 58 locks in total, and the smaller lakes that you cross,
    make 103 km of the entire canal route.

      don't miss the top highlight of the route: Bergs Slussar: staircase of locks on the Göta Canal in Berg.
