Hegni outdoor area




Hegni is a pleasant and family-friendly outdoor area, perfect for everyone who wants to enjoy the summer in beautiful surroundings. There is a small, cozy beach, a playground for the youngest children and great hiking opportunities in scenic surroundings. The area also features the Museum of Iron Production and the Viking Trail – just perfect for those who want to learn more about the Viking Age.
This summer (2025), the kiosk will be open every day from June 19 to August 10, between 12:00 PM and 6:00 PM. This year, local youth will be running the kiosk. You can buy ice cream, sausages, soft drinks, and coffee – just what you need on a sunny day.
