Nøklevann
Have a swim, its a pond! Or just enjoy the scenery!
Stensrudtjern
I love it here, the pond has several beaches and a floating dock.
Nakholmen
You can walk around the pond. Its popular, and crowded, but nice and worth the trip. I would avoid swimming here, because of paracites in the water.
