A beach, some facilities, nice easy hiking and some picnic grounds, it's a good outing. In the winter you can rent ice skates and use the sauna after swimming in the ice cold water.

A cafe, and another restaurant/cafe in a garden, all nestled by the water and near the old buildings where Alfred Nobel first experimented with dynamite. Great for a sunny day to get a bit outside of the central parts of the city.
