This is where I run. Beautiful lake in the outskirts of Copenhagen.
Originally this lake served as a water reservoir for the city but has since taken its place as a local favourite for a stroll, running and leisure time in the massive park north of the lake 'Damhus engen'
Be sure to visit the ice cream parlour at the bottom of the lake.

The public pool/springboard/bathing installation is ideal for families. A bit crowded on summerdays, but still superb for a day out with kids. Bring towels, sunscreen and an apetite for icecream.

Children
Wonderful open park with a playground for children. In the summertime there is a manned station that lends playthings out to children free of charge. Great for hanging out and enjoying a bit of nature while the children are playing.
