Reviews
A wonderful location with great facilities, but unfortunately the water quality near the swimming platforms needs more attention. There is a noticeable build-up of algae and debris, which makes the area appear poorly maintained. I sincerely hope the local municipality will inspect and clean this area more regularly. This is one of Copenhagen’s popular public swimming spots, and it deserves proper maintenance to ensure a clean, safe, and enjoyable environment for both locals and visitors.
