The trail stretches from Fiskebäck's chapel in the north (Habo municipality) to Sofia Church in central Jönköping. The trail passes many sights. The trail starts at Fiskebäck's chapel which dates from the 1780s. The trail goes furthest along Lake Vättern and in many places it glimpses and gives nice views. You will pass Domsand a very nice bathing place in the summer.
