Bergs Slussar is the largest lock staircase of the Göta Canal and at the same time one of the most famous technical structures in Sweden. The imposing, almost one kilometer-long lock system is a well-visited attraction in the small village of Berg am See Roxen, about 10 kilometers north of Linköping.

Hiking

Here boats are lifted a total of 18.8m via 7 locks in order to pass the Göta Canal from Lake Roxen. There are only gravel paths on both sides, but you should also take a look at the building from below (Roxen Lake).
