June 9, 2025, Sunnabron Shelter, Åsnen National Park

The northern part of the national park is named after the bridge of the same name, Sunnabron. Here, you'll find everything you need for a leisurely break. In good weather, there are plenty of seating areas and even fire pits. If it rains, there are shelters to keep you dry. Numerous information panels also provide information about the national park, Lake Åsnen, and its inhabitants. Definitely worth a visit if you're passing through by bike.

Not as crowded as you might think in the off-season. I've been here both on a gravel bike and as a hiker. I was always alone. The toilet block has been slightly expanded and now houses a small waste separation facility.

A very nice barbecue area right on the beach. Much more recommendable than the barbecue area further south at the observation deck because it's less crowded.
