The maintenance of this stage is neglected in several places. There may be trees over the trail and some stretches need to be cleared to increase accessibility. We are working to get the trail in order, but we recommend so far that you choose another hiking stage. Along Kolarmoraån, the trail will be partly redrawn.

Beskrivelse
The longest section of The Uppland Trail takes you through forest areas that are practically uninhabited. The hike starts at the rest spot by River Kolarmoraån, close to Lake Vällen, and ends at Gimo Herrgård Manor.
From the River Kolarmoraån, the path winds its way to the narrow Lake Gisslaren, where, at the southern end, you’ll find many good spots for a break or a swim. The trail then follows the lake, more or less, along the reeds through flat forest areas that are rich in boulders and broadleaf trees. At the northern end of the lake, you’ll reach a wind shelter where you can stay the night, and the trail turns towards Gimo. Walking through airy forests, you’ll pass the remains of three cottages before the trail splits in two. We recommend that you choose the easier to walk southern section to Gimo. The northern one is described in Walk 10:1.
Difficulty level: Medium, mostly paths, the last 7 kilometres are on forest roads.

Veibeskrivelse
It is not possible to get by car all the way to the rest area where the stage starts. But it is possible to park 1.5 km away. From road 288 you turn off towards Hallstavik on road 661 just east of Gåvsta. 2.5 miles later you pass over Vällen and a few kilometers further on you turn left towards Kolarmora. Follow the gravel road. After less than 3 km, there is a gated road to the left. You can park a car at the side of the road. From here it is a 1.5 km hike along the toll road to Kolarmoraån's rest area. Towards the end the road splits, keep right.
The end of the stage is at Gimo manor. Parking is available next to Gimo pond.

Om jag kunde ge den här etappen noll stjärnor så skulle jag. Att den behöver en del underhåll är den största underdriften jag någonsin hört. 50% av leden är inte ens en stig det är bara långa sträckor av högt gräs, fallna träd och brännässlor som man behöver pressa sig igenom. 8 fästingar, helt förstörda ben och dubbel så lång tid än vad samma sträcka brukar ta senare kommer man äntligen fram till någon sunkig träsk sjö som man måste slå läger vid.
Jag rekommenderar verkligen inte att gå den här leden
Rejäl etapp som blev söndagens sträcka en helg från Knutby till Gimo. Övernattade vid Kolarmora ett par veckor efter kraftiga regn 2020. Sträckan efter Kolarmoraån var fullkomligt oframkomlig. Det fick bli skogsvägen söder om ån upp till Kolarmora.
Överlag otroligt blött öster om sjön Kångeln, så jag vet egentligen inte hur det ska ser ut i normalfallet, säkert lättare att ta sig fram!
