Try something new!

Located in the archipelago, close to the forests of Tiveden, and with a vibrant countryside of several small communities, Askersund offers a wide range of activities for those who enjoy an active holiday.

Enhance your summer by visiting any of the ten municipal beaches and try the new beach volleyball court by the beach at Lake Hemsjön in Åsbro. Go for a swim in Hargebaden’s heated pool or from Harge’s sandy beaches – Närke’s Riviera, which is accessible and where you can borrow the beach wheelchair Hippocampe. The municipality has many lakes to enjoy, both those with prepared swim areas and those where you can find your own swimming spot! And why not try your luck fishing in one of the many lakes?

If you wish to get out on the waves, there are plenty of places to launch your own canoe or kayak. You can also hire a canoe, kayak or other type of boat from one of the rental companies around. If you like sailing, you can sign up for dinghy sailing with one of the boat clubs in the area.

Or why not try our new trails for cycling and mountain biking, or cycle orienteering. The maps to your most
