Mini golf – open year-round
Our Adventure Area has a 12-hole mini golf course. We are open year-round, as long as the course is not covered in snow. Challenge your friends or family to a match, and may the best player win! You can rent clubs and balls from our adventure kiosk, which is open in peak season in summer. At other times, we can help you in the store.
Adventure kiosk
In the heart of our Adventure Area, you will find our adventure kiosk. Here, you can rent canoes, pedal boats, and mini golf equipment, and borrow balls, bocce sets and much more. You can also buy ice cream, sweets and drinks. The adventure kiosk is open in peak season in summer. Welcome!
Relax – Sauna
It can be nice to relax in a hot sauna after a long day. Our biggest service building, next to the Adventure Area, has two relaxation areas with a sauna, shower and changing room. The relaxation areas have their own entrances from outside and are rented by the hour.
The sauna can hold up to 6–7 people, and the changing room can hold more. The relaxation area has a shower and WC. Towels are available for rent if you do not have your own. Contact reception for more information.
Bocce court – year-round
Our adventure area has a lovely bocce court. Challenge friends of all ages to a game. The bocce court is open to everyone year-round, as long as it is not covered in snow. If you have your own bocce set, go ahead and play. If you want to play but do not have a set, you can borrow one from the adventure kiosk. The adventure kiosk is open in peak season in summer. At other times, contact reception.

Swimming
You can take a swim in the river in our Adventure Area.
Go swimming straight from the field; remember not to let children who cannot swim go into the water alone, as it gets deep quickly.
Swimming in the Viskan river at the campgrounds is wonderful. The water from Öresjö lake, at Borås’ biggest beach, Almenäs, runs out into the Viskan and past the campgrounds.
Why not combine a swim with a sauna session? If you’re courageous, try it in winter! Reserve our sauna at reception
Grill
If you didn’t bring your own grill with you, the campgrounds have two barbecue areas, one of which is in our Adventure Area. You will find a large barbecue with benches around it. Next to the barbecue is a table and benches under the cover of a roof. If you forgot to buy lighter fluid and charcoal, they are available for purchase in our store, which is open during peak season in summer.
Winter paddling
How about navigating through a winter wonderland? Head to Öresjö lake, light a fire, get warm and grill your lunch at one of the many barbecues before returning to the campgrounds. Try winter paddling!
Of course, you can also enjoy this activity in autumn, spring and summer!
