I love swimming so finding a good swimming hall in Copenhagen has been one of my top priorities for…read morea while. There are different criteria for this I guess, preferably it should be close to either work or home and it should also be somewhat modern, or at least clean. This one is quite close to the office and walking distance from Birkerød station, placed just next to (or as a part of) Birkerød sports center. So we can check proximity of the list. It is however quite old and it shows on worn down, brown wooden walls and locker doors barely hanging on to one hinge. There are cracks in the tiles and a "not-so-clean"-vibe, I'm not saying it isn't clean but you just get that feeling, like an old gymnasium. I have high hopes that the renovation that is currently underway might change this and will update my review if so. There's usually a lane free (think there are about six in each) and they have at least two separate 25m pools available plus there is also a hot water basin in a separate area. During the mornings there have been some occasions when zig-zagging has been necessary, but it is quite rare. The staff is friendly but do remember that they can only accept cash and even then they sometimes struggle with change, so if you want to become a regular I suggest you get the 10 or 20 ticket bundles. An OK hall, and not at all as crowded as say Frederiksberg Svømmehal, or Kildskovens Svømmehal, due to the location I would presume. It is nice not having to fight for a lane. :) During the renovation period you have to enter through the back, the handicap entrance and it is a bit of a hassle with the smaller changing areas etc. But good things come to those who wait I guess.
