Description

In Motala, the Katarinaleden and Birgittaleden converge in a final joint day's trail towards Vadstena. A symbolic reminder of mother and daughter's pilgrimages together through Europe in the 14th century.

The trail between Motala and Vadstena is partly on paved road but also along gravel roads next to beautiful fields.

At the height of Västra Stenby, (about 2 km from the trail) is Birgitta's spring. Saint Birgitta is said to have rested there when she walked between Ulvåsa and Vadstena.
