Kampementsbadet

Kampementsbadet is a public outdoor pool in Stockholm's Gärdet neighborhood with a 25-meter main basin that varies between shallow and deeper sections. A dedicated splash area serves younger children and families looking for calmer water.

The facility opened in 1962 as part of Stockholm's expansion of public recreational spaces for residents. Its design reflected the growing importance of outdoor swimming in urban planning during that era.

Swedish families gather at this swimming complex during summer months, maintaining the tradition of outdoor swimming activities in urban environments.

The location sits within a park setting that offers plenty of space to settle with towels and belongings. Summer brings the busiest times, especially on sunny afternoons and weekends when you should arrive early for a good spot.

On weekday mornings between 08:30 and 10:30, the pool sets aside dedicated lanes for swimmers who want to do laps. This arrangement keeps the rest of the water free for casual swimmers and families during the same hours.
