Hike to Gamla Uppsala (St. Erik's trail)

Details

We hike from Haglunds bridge (where Skolgatan crosses the river) to Gamla Uppsala on the traditional pilgrimage trail through gardens, forest and fields, and take a coffee break at café Odinsborg. Distance 5km, flat terrain. Fragrance of lilac and wild roses on the way, golden fields of rapeseed and a chance to meet a pheasant.
Return by bus 2 (or on foot for those who want to walk more). Bring drinking water and a snack.

Upon return to the town we will get surrounded by events of Somarsläpp (the launch of summer). See https://uppsalacity.se/sommarslapp/ for program (tip: there will be a free sauna)
