Good to know

Lake Tenhultasjön has thousands of years of organic material like leaves and branches on its bottom, now forming mud. This mud can shift and create holes or sinking spots. Please be cautious and supervise children closely while swimming.

If you discover any holes, please report them to the municipality’s contact center at 036-105000.
