The old prison (which I did not visit today) has been turned into a hostel. Lots of walking paths criss-crossing the park. Some paved. Some hard-packed dirt. A caravan park. Kayak and canoe rentals. Beaches and swimming. Or just enjoy the park itself that allows dogs. [Review 18747 overall - 80 in Sweden - 2270 of 2022.]

And if you are feeling more adventurous, there are canoes and kayaks to rent, and perhaps why not take a swim in a nearby beach. Also don't forget to visit the old prison which is now a hotel, where the original architecture was preserved.

I like this place a lot. It's smaller than telefonplan, but…read moreat the same time the people working there are very friendly, and it feels more personal than other climbing centers. Showers, sauna, etc. are clean and always working. In a way it feels like this place is more for bouldering than lead or top roping, but you can do all three. They change routes and boulder problems with regularity, which is great

The smaller brother of the Telefonplan location. This is quite a bit smaller than the other…read morelocation. There is probably about 33% of the bouldering routes as in the Telefonplan location. Of course there is rope climbing: top-roping and lead climbing as well. Still, it's a nice gym with nice changing rooms with showers, a cafe, etc. One nice thing about this location is that the gym (ie where the weights and etc are located) is larger. It doesn't have a true water fountain, just a sink (if you can't tell, I'm grasping for informative information here). Its not the flagship location, but it's nice if you live closer to it and probably the community is a bit smaller so you might get to know everyone a little better. It's definitely a place I would recommend climbing. Get there before 17.00 on the weekdays for a cheaper day pass!

A big space, lot's of bouldering variety, quite a lot roped climbing, frequent route resets, and…read morefriendly staff are at the heart of this gyms success. There's a good sized changing room with lockers and showers, a cafe to sit and have a cup with a new or old friend, a climbing gear retail store and yes, shoe-horns for their "no shoes beyond this line" policy. They have done a lot of work this Summer on the gym and it is vastly improved by adding hard flooring for "clean and jerk" practitioners and anyone looking for more stabilized footing, olympic rings, a rope climb, mounted ab benches, new yoga mats, and more space by re-organizing a bunch of things. It is definitely a gym for those of us that prefer body-weight exercises. In a previous review, I knocked them for the stiffness of the mats upstairs. I can say that over time they have become less so. Unfortunately they have also taken away the buffet, which was a great deal but apparently was too difficult and costly to manage. At least TellUs Bar and Kök just outside the gym has some good deals. Another thing that is difficult about this gym, but doesn't apply to many is that the monthly rate is very expensive if you can't sign up for their automatic debit plan which requires a Swedish Bank Account (and personal number). They had a Summer deal where you could purchase access through the end of August, but they don't usually have anything like this at any other part of the year. It would be nice if they did something to address this: allowing people to purchase a certain number of months at a time at a discounted rate. It's perhaps too expensive in Sweden but it's a shame they don't have fitness classes or Yoga with your membership as is common in the States -- but probably in Sweden there is enough of that elsewhere. This is a great gym and lots of friendly Swedes and others are climbing here. Enjoy!

There's a changing room with showers and bathroom inside the main building as well. It's supposedly open till 23:00! Really recommend it for skating if you live nearby.
