Mosvannet
The lake closest to the hotel, and the neighbourhood's own running track. Out the door, around the water and home again. A good walk with children too.

Three routes we run ourselves. Just as good at walking pace.
Stokkavannet
For a longer run. The path around the lake is about 10 km, and 12 to 13 km if you start and finish at the hotel.

Our favourite. The route follows the water through Godalen, with swimming spots and saunas along the way. Bring a towel.

Eyda run club leaves from Godt Brød downstairs, one Sunday a month.
Heat, then the fjord
A sauna by the fjord is how Stavanger does winter, and summer. Our sauna partner is BookSauna. Book a slot, bring swimwear and a towel.
Aya
A private sauna by the water in Paradis, from BookSauna. Book the whole thing for yourselves.

Take the umbrella.
