Follow the signs for Aqua to find this tree-filled riverside park, about 2km south of the
town centre (just south of Indelukket). Cabins and caravans are available for hire (only by
the week in July & August), and there's a lovely natural pool for swimming. Local bus 4
runs down this way.
Radisson BLU Hotel
HOTEL

This polished performer lives in the redeveloped paper factory that was once the backbone
of the local economy. It's right on the river, among a clutch of restaurants, and the designer
rooms are petite but comfy and well equipped. Weekend rates are cheaper than midweek.
Eating
There are two areas to investigate when scouting for eating (and drinking) options: the re-
invigorated Papirfabrikken (the old paper factory) and the fast food and international
cuisines found on Nygade. End-of-week nightlife clusters around the corner of Nygade
and Hostrupsgade.
