Don’t miss a stroll through this picturesque riverside park – follow Åhavevej south to reach it. There’s a snack bar here, as well as mini-golf, a playground, a marina and an open-air stage. If you’re on foot, it’s the desired route to get to Museum Jorn, the camping ground and points further south.
