Munksjön, Freshwater lake in Jönköping, Sweden

Munksjön lake extends through the center of Jönköping, providing a natural water feature with walking paths along its perimeter for outdoor activities.

The lake has served as an essential water source for Jönköping residents since medieval times, supporting local communities and industrial development through centuries.

Each August, Jönköping University students participate in the Bathtub Race on Munksjön, floating through canals in decorated bathtubs for public entertainment.

Visitors can access multiple parking areas and information signs around the lake, with designated spots for fishing, swimming, and launching small watercraft.

Munksjön contains one of the richest varieties of fish species in Jönköping County, including substantial populations of pike and bream for sport fishing.
