Swimming spots
Great, family-friendly swimming beach in Sandvika. On busy days it can be difficult to get parking (pay via the EasyPay app). There's a little kiosk there to by drinks and ice creams.

It's about 1km to the lake from the car park, but it can be a lot quieter than the Sandvika beaches, and it is stunning there.
