Many ways
to play golf.
And swim.
if your decision to go swimming depends on the temperature,
you no longer have any excuse. Because the
number of bathing options is virtually endless. the same
is true for many activities in skellefteå. the possibilities
are almost endless. take a look at the opportunities open
to you. if things don’t go well with your nine iron (always
blame the club!) swap it for an approach disc and you’re
bound to see an improvement.
finding things to do in skellefteå is not
particularly difficult. you may, in fact,
have trouble choosing. take the matter
of golf, for example. with its 27 holes,
rönnbäcken golf course is a renowned
and popular golf course that suits most
people. and the fact that skellefteå can
also offer miniature golf is not, of course,
unique but it is enjoyable and courses with
varying degrees of difficulty can be found
on most campsites. it is the fact that we
go one stage further that causes eyebrows
to be raised. acting as host for national
and international tournaments every year,
discgolfterminalen is one of the best disc
golf courses in europe. and if your appetite
for golf is still not satisfied, you can always
try football golf in Bureå.
you have just as many choices open to
you when it comes to another popular
summer activity - bathing. staying in an
area so close to the sea, it would be a pity
not to take the plunge at one or more of
the many seaside resorts in skellefteå.
a little closer and warmer, falkträsket
is the town’s popular, centrally-located
natural outdoor bathing place suitable for
people with disabilities. there is also an
abundance of lakes and pools awaiting the
timid bather. the next step on the thermal
scale is vitbergsbadet, a swimming facility
with a wave machine and water chute, and
if you want to go even further we have the
recently renovated eddahallen swimming
pool complex. and the warmest of all, of
course, are the hot tubs you will find at
many of the bathing facilities in the area.
all you have to do is jump right in!
activities
go-karTing
go-karting is one of the summer’s most enjoyable
distractions. the fastec ring, just outside central
skellefteå, happens to be one of europe’s most
up-to-date go-karting tracks, adding even more
to the enjoyment. there is even a track for the
little ones.
waTErcrafT safari
the mighty skellefte river is a central and an
important part of skellefteå’s cityscape. it is
scattered with small islands and islets, and
is the starting point for wonderful walks and
marvellous fishing. if you want to explore the
river close to the city or our seaside coast in a
slightly different way, a jet-ski safari in Boviken,
for instance, is the activity for you.
boda borg
the word you should keep in mind when stepping
into Boda Borg is “Quests”. this is how it
works... you open doors. Behind each door is a
challenge; four challenges make up a Quest and
Quests are there to be solved.
