We are proud to have part of the Östgötaleden Trail named a signature trail by the Swedish Tourist Association. A signature trail is a hiking trail that offers spectacular nature experiences, is suitable for beginners and experienced hikers alike, is easily accessible via public transport, and offers overnight accommodation. Signature Trail Omberg follows beautiful forest trails and small paths along the shore of Lake Vättern towards Mount Omberg.

Borghamn is the northern gateway to Omberg. Several hiking trails, walking paths, and an MTB course start here. Beautifully situated on the shore of Lake Vättern are also twenty some listed buildings currently used as hostels, hotels, and restaurants, as well as for camping. You also find a limestone harbour with boat berths and opportunities for swimming. It was all built by Baltzar von Platen in the early 19th century. Not far from Borghamn is Västra Väggar. With its 90-metre steep drop, you have wonderful views all the way to the Province of Västergötland.

This is a site you simply must check off your bucket list when visiting Omberg. Hjässan is the highest point of the mountain, and there is no place in Östergötland Province that beats this view. Gaze out over Lake Vättern, Lake Tåkern, and the Östgöta Plains. You can also visit the adjacent remains from the Hjässa Fort, the largest of three ancient forts at Omberg.
