Eketorpsleden – new hiking trail

Eketorpsleden is a 1.6-km path out on the limestone plain west of Eketorp fort, the southern-most of Öland’s ancient forts.
The fort, which has been rebuilt, is strategically located in the middle of the limestone plateau known as Stora alvaret. The path runs
through pastures and is marked with stone mounds or cairns.
