The section mainly runs on a smaller path in forest land up on the edge of Sydbillingen.

However, the tour begins in open pastures with a view of Hornborgasjön and some country road with beautiful views before the route via a solid hill leads up to Billingen, which is part of the Unesco-certified table mountains geopark. The end is easy to walk and you pass the ruin of an old limestone quarry and a beautiful stone arch bridge before you glimpse and reach Varnhem's Monastery Church and monastery ruins. In Varnhem there is also a café, Klostersjön and Kata farm, the ruin of one of Sweden's oldest churches from the Viking Age.
