Vadstena — 3 nights

Vadstena is a locality and the seat of Vadstena Municipality, Östergötland County, Sweden, with 5,613 inhabitants in 2010. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Naturum Takern and Sancta Birgitta Conventmuseum. Change things up with these side-trips from Vadstena: Kornettgardens Samlingar och Cafe (in Flistad) and Brunneby Musteri & Gardsbutik (in Borensberg). There's much more to do: take in the pleasant sights at Borenshults Slussar, grab your bike and head to Vattern, relax and rejuvenate at Hogby Spa & Konferens, and make a trip to Alvastra Monastery.
