Renting a boat in Köping: from the river port to Mälaren
Köping lies at the north-western tip of Lake Mälaren, where the lake continues as the Köpingsån river. The river, 38 km long, runs through the town and flows out into Galten, a bay of Mälaren south-east of Köping. A trading place here is first mentioned in 1257, and the Köpingsån was canalised in 1735.
A 40 ft cabin cruiser with room for up to eight is listed in Köping.
Köping has Sweden's second-largest inland port, with an oil harbour and a deep-water harbour a little way up the river, so expect commercial ships in the fairway. For the rest of the lake, from Strängnäs to Drottningholm, see our guide to boating on Lake Mälaren, which describes a lake with an average depth of 13 m and well-marked waterways.
