If you have your own boat, taking the water route to Örebro is a great option. The guest harbor is actually located right in the heart of the city. The approach is from the Röda tunnan lighthouse in the westernmost part of Lake Hjälmaren. On your way into Örebro, you’ll pass the Oset and Rynningeviken bird sanctuaries, as well as Alnängarna, Naturens Hus, and the marina. After a gentle passage through the locks, the journey continues toward the city center via Wadköping, Stora Holmen, and Stadsparken. The guest harbor is located at Hamnplan, just a stone’s throw from the castle.
