Sjötorp

The summer idyll Sjötorp by lake Vänern and Göta Canal offers many pleasant experiences.

The community comes to life during summer with many visitors who wants to enjoy the old shipyard town by the start of Göta Canal. There's multiple restaurants, cafés, and shacks with ice cream, fish and other shopping.
