エステルイェータランドのおすすめライド

In Borensberg, the Göta Canal meets the Motala Ström, creating a picturesque setting where water and history intertwine. This is one of the few sections of the canal without a lock, as the natural flow of the river carries boats gently onward. The spot is particularly charming, with the old lock keeper’s cottage, small bridges, and cafés giving it the feel of a living postcard. Long a gathering place for travelers and locals, Borensberg highlights the harmony between the canal’s engineering and the surrounding landscape. Today, it remains a beloved stop for cyclists, boaters, and visitors exploring the heart of Östergötland.

Impressive moated castle; worth a visit.

From 1100 onwards, the convent (women's monastery) was important. It was dissolved before 1600

With the M/S Kung Sverker, you can take a cruise on Lake Vättern or a day trip on the Göta Canal. For prices, departure times, and further information, I recommend the website: www.kungsverker.se

Have a break

A nice place in front of Borenshult slussar. Coffee, ice cream, burgers (even Vego), etc...

Go in!

The monastery was the first nunnery in Sweden and was founded around 1100. The church is one of the most interesting in Sweden and includes numerous medieval gems.
