100% wonderful! We went and took the little train that goes around the park for 30 SEK each (for a 15 minute ride). It's mostly for kids, but a little indulgence here and there isn't bad. It took us past the ducks and geese, and seals, and past the elk location (but you couldn't see the elk from the train),... More

Whether by planning or good luck, there are many interesting parks around this rather large city. This park includes a small zoo, lots of walking paths, some interesting old wooden buildings, and a lake with ducks. Was surprised just how many people were visiting and walking. Possibly because this is one of the free attractions of the city. Recommended for... More

Not a zoo, but a nice park with animals. Free of charge. In the summertime, this is a very nice spot to visit with kids. In the wintertime, it is also open and a good way to get the family out even if the weather is not that good.

As it's sunny we decided to go to slottssskogen. I did have to walk around a bit before actually reaching the place coz of the wrong tram connection. But as I saw the place I totally loved it. It's like this huge playground/park so well done and organized and you have so many parents with the kids, people jogging but... More

We visited here in late october so admittedly a few of the attractions were already closed as it was getting cold. However, our three year old still had a fantastic time. With us we had a some swedish kids who've seen all these animals before but still they all had a terrific day. Favourites were the moose and penguins of... More

We went there twice, on the amazing playground Plikta, and just walking around the beautiful alleys. Very relaxing and nice.

We decided to visit the locals' favourite park. It was large, but compact enough to walk across easily. We were suprised to find an animal park at the top of the hill - deer, elks, pot-bellied pigs, penguins, and lots of birds/geese. There is also a small zoo, but this shuts in October.

Take a stroll through the park and say hello to the cute seals and penguins...if you have the energy, climb up the hill and check out the elk. By far my favorite place in town!

This park is excellent for everyone, whether you just want to go for a walk, ride your bike, play mini golf, trek up the hills, take the children to the playground or visit the many animals they keep all year round. The trails are well marked so if you know what you want to do, it should be easy to... More
