• Motala guest harbour – The number of guest harbour berths has been reduced by half compared with the information in the Skipper’s Guide due to the low water level in Lake Vättern.

• Follow our passenger boats online – We are currently experiencing technical issues with some of the GPS trackers on our passenger boats. As a result, M/S Bellevue, which operates between Sjötorp and Töreboda, is not visible in the current tracking service. Please feel free to ask our lock keepers for information about any expected boat encounters.

Please note! During the high season, we provide information about traffic disruptions caused by technical faults or other incidents via SMS.
