Winter bathing at Albuen Strand
At Albuen Strand you will find a beach which is very shallow. It lies inside the fjord, like a bay, and therefore you have to go a good distance into the water before it gets deep. There is no bathing bridge and no stairs down into the water. There are toilet facilities at the kiosk that you can use after your dip.
