24/7 paddling in scenic Rocksjön

In the heart of Jönköping lies Rocksjön, a small lagoon lake with big possibilities. With a Kayakomat station located at Hasse på Sjökanten, you can rent a kayak or SUP board around the clock. The convenient self-service concept means you book online, unlock on site, and head out on your own terms.

Here, you’ll find calm waters, nature close at hand, and the perfect setting for both beginners and experienced paddlers. Experience Rocksjön in the morning light, enjoy an evening paddle at sunset, or combine your trip with a visit to the nearby restaurant Hasse på Sjökanten.

Unique paddling experiences at Rocksjön

Rocksjön is part of a larger natural area featuring canoe routes, birdlife, and historic landmarks. The lake is shallow, sheltered, and easy to paddle, making it ideal for short outings with children, beginners, or anyone simply looking to enjoy the peace and quiet.

The surrounding area is rich in history—for instance, the childhood home of artist John Bauer once stood nearby. If you'd like to extend your experience, activities like Knektaparken, a public beach, and a birdwatching tower are just around the corner.

How Kayakomat works – book, unlock, and paddle

Renting a kayak or SUP board through Kayakomat is simple and flexible. You book online and receive a code via text and email. Using a smart locking system, you can unlock your gear whenever it suits you.

A life jacket, paddle, and spray skirt are provided at each station. The rental is available 24/7 and works equally well for spontaneous outings or planned adventures. It’s a fun and affordable way to enjoy nature with friends, family, or solo.

Choose from a single kayak, tandem kayak, or SUP board and head out on the water!
