Walking to Örgryte

Despite the cold and snow, many people walk or ride bicycles to work in Göteborg. The city has an excellent network of sidewalks and bicycle paths and pedestrians are given the right of way over the crosswalks. I experienced an early morning walk to the Örgryte church on Thursday morning to take advantage of some practice time on the North German organ.

The walking and bicycle paths crossing under the road.
