Odensjön, Circular lake in Söderåsen National Park, Sweden.
Odensjön is a circular lake in Söderåsen National Park in Scania. It spans roughly 150 meters across with a maximum depth of 19 meters.
The lake caught the attention of geologist Alfred Gabriel Nathorst, whose studies were later continued by Lennart von Post. Their combined research through the 1980s established important understanding of how glaciers shaped the landscape here.
The name references Norse mythology and the god Odin, with locals noting how the round shape resembles his single eye. This mythological connection remains part of how people understand and speak about the place today.
The lake supports various fishing methods including fly fishing, bait fishing, and spinning throughout the year. Check local regulations before planning a fishing visit.
During winter the surface freezes solid, creating a natural platform for ice fishing that transforms the experience entirely. This seasonal shift offers visitors a different way to engage with the water compared to summer months.
