Linköping canal district
Welcome to Linköping’s canal quarter, a place where the city’s pulse meets the calm waters and greenery of the Kinda Canal. Here, in the heart of central Linköping, the canal stretches and creates a green oasis with much to discover, a place where you can catch your breath from the city’s pace for a while.
Linköping’s canal quarter stretches from Tullbron to Drottningbron, and here you will find several popular restaurants, bars, cafés, and accommodations. By the water, you will also find several piers and benches perfect for a break or a picnic; many residents of Linköping enjoy sunny days here. At Mickey’s Strandfik, you can also rent kayaks, pedal boats, and electric boats to experience Linköping’s canal quarter from the water.
For those arriving with their own boat to the canal quarter, it is possible to stay with the boat in the guest harbor for 225 kr/night.
