Rain in Gothenburg? Here, it is all part of the plan. At Regnlekplatsen by Näckrosdammen, children can jump in puddles, follow rainwater through channels and funnels, and discover just how much fun a wet day can be. The playground works just as well when the sun comes out.

Jump, climb and play in the rain

The large leaf-shaped canopies provide shelter from both rain and sun. At the same time, they collect water and send it through funnels and channels into the sand below. Children can splash in puddles, make a mess at the mud table and climb on the play structure Spön i backen. Bring wellies and clothes that can handle a proper soaking.

Regnlekplatsen also has a slide, sandpit, trampoline and several types of swings, including a baby swing and a large group swing. So there is still plenty to do when the weather stays dry.

Good to know

Paths through the playground have been designed to make it easier for wheelchair users to reach the different play areas. This includes the route to the group swing.

The water features normally run from late May until at least August 31. If the weather stays warm, the season may continue into September.

Getting to Regnlekplatsen

The playground is in Renströmsparken, next to Näckrosdammen. The nearest public transport stop is Berzeliigatan.
