A new beach was created at Bortelidtjønna in the summer of 2019, which has become very popular with both children and adults. There is also a cozy little beach at Rundatjønna that is well-suited for families with children. The water is quite shallow in both Bortelidtjønna and Rundatjønna, so the temperature is often pleasant once the sun has warmed it up.

There are many lovely swimming pools in Murtebekken, which runs from the town center southwards down to Murtetjønn.

The northern end of Juvatn is a great place for swimming on the smooth rocks, especially when the water level is low. When the water flow is low, there are also beautiful potholes further up the watercourse.
