Carl Johans Locks, Berg, Göta Canal
Highlight • Structure
On the mountain side behind this lock staircase is a very large harbor basin, which is used as Berg's boat harbor and as a waiting area for the boats and ships waiting for the lock, but primarily serves as a water reservoir for the seven-step lock staircase.
At the opposite exit of the harbor basin is Oscar's lock, a double lock with which 4.8 meters of altitude can be overcome. After another, much smaller port basin, the last thing to come is the Karl Ludvig Eugen lock, another double lock with which the last 4.8 meters of height difference can be overcome.
Immediately by the locks there is a snack bar as well as a restaurant with a café and a beautifully designed adventure golf course. At the latest, the large car park with numerous motorhome parking spaces shows that Bergs Slussar is a very popular national excursion destination. In the immediate vicinity of the locks are the beautiful Bergsbaden bathing beach and the ruins of Vreta Kloster, Sweden's oldest monastery complex.

Svartån River
Highlight • River
The river originates near Ormaryd, about 10 km east of Nässjö. From there it flows in a northerly direction to Aneby, where it overcomes the Stalpet waterfall. It continues to flow past Gripenberg and Tranås and flows into Lake Sommen. He leaves it again and continues on his course to the north. It flows through the towns of Boxholm and Mjölby, takes in the right tributary Lillån and ends its course with its confluence northwest of Linköping in the Roxen.
The estuary is in a bird sanctuary.
Svartån is part of the Motala strom river system. It has a length of 165 km and a catchment area of 3410 km².
