A loop will take you through Stockholm, Uppsala, Enköping, Västerås, Köping, Eskilstuna, Strängnäs and Södertälje.
A complete loop around the lake must include every single drip of water that belongs to Mälaren, which means a loop must pass the following locations:

Uppsala:

Flottsund, bridge

Örsundsbro: Örsundaån, or west of

Köping: Köpingsån, or west of

Södertälje: Slussbron, or south of Södertälje sluss

I am an 76 year old long distance runne, ran alone with a baby jogger without support. I stayed all nights in hotels in Uppsala, Västerås, Köping, Strängnäs and Södertälje and had dinner in restaurants. I didn't run on European roads or on 2+1 roads. Start and finish were at Sankt Eriksplan in Stockholm. You can read about my run on my webpage www.suneson.se
