We chose to park down in the guest harbour where there are 12 places with electricity. Here it was the nicest and also close to cafes and restaurants. The pitches can be booked in advance at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gotakanal.se\/sv\/stays\/village\/2630738\/stallplats-sjotorp-sodra\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">G\u00f6ta Canal website<\/a>, which is probably necessary in summer.

Otherwise, there is nothing else that particularly stands out, but there is at least access to shower and toilet in a fresh service building. For fresh water and grey water drainage, you are referred to the harbour and the gas station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" data-src=\"https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-1024x577.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107907 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-1024x577.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-1536x865.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-2048x1153.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/knapptstyrfart.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/20250417_192248-18x10.jpeg 18w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/577;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, we had a nice evening and a good start to our Easter trip.
