Göta Canal is ideal for hiking, paddling and cycling, even though it is most often associated with boats.
In our hiking and cycling package Göta Kanal we have combined these activities to give you a fantastic experience where you come close to nature and the beautiful canal environments.

children's Mini Channel
At the Göta Kanal there is the children’s Mini-Channel, the Göta Kanal built in miniature.
Locks
Norrqvarn’s location right next to the Göta Kanal is ideal for watching when the boats pass the locks. Settle down on the jetty, enjoy lunch, a snack or dinner and a lovely view of the Gota Kanal!

Just outside the hotel by the canal is our hot tub and sauna, the best relaxation after an active day.
