If you would like to get away from the big city, walk around the lake, breathe ions, feel safe, let the dogs run free (possibly illegal), this is perhaps the best suggestion in the Gothenburg area. This senior citizen finds that there is enough energy to make the two-hour 7 km small circle trip. The layout and planning/paths/bridges is amazing!... More

Not so much for tourists as much as for locals. Really a wonderful resource if you have time for a day in nature. Nothing wild, no moose or bear, just to be clear, but a extremely well kept public area, fully immersed in Swedish nature. Great walking, running or mountain biking paths, great swimming in clean lake waters (if temperature... More

Well lit and very popular running trails. 8k loop takes in a couple of lakes and you feel like you are right out of the city, despite being only a few minutes from the centre

Delsjön is a very nice natural reserve and is used by many to get a relaxing time from the daily stresses. Many people use this area to exercise like running - walking - powerwalk. It is a place to enjoy the tranquility.

Delsjön is a huge area with a variety of lakes and lots of forest. The forest seems never-ending and you can walk without seeing anyone else once you get off the main tracks. Swim in Delsjön (or ice skate on it in winter) or rent canoes and kayaks. There are two good cafes - Lyktan which is just near the... More

This is part of a huge lake system just outside town, easily accessible by street car or car. Totally huge forest and great lakes for swimming (in the summer), fishing, running, walking etc. Nature at its best!

A dip in Delsjön in the summer is not to be missed. You will see many summer houses dotted around this beautiful freshwater lake.

Delsjön is a really nice area. You can take a swim in the lake there as well as having bbq in the grass. The park is big so you can also go hiking in the area. If you have time to come here during your visit to Gothenburg do it if you like nice views and nature experiences.
