Økern bad

Økern Torgvei 2, 0580 Oslo

Municipal swimming pool at Økern with a single 25-metre pool, 1.10 to 1.60 metres deep and 28 degrees. There is no splash pool, no slide and no shallow end where the smallest children can stand, so this is a pool for children who can swim.

Note that the city now states that from Monday to Friday there is only capacity for swimming in the pool, so bathing and play are not possible on those days. At weekends all six lanes are free. The city publishes a separate page showing when the pool may be occupied. Changing rooms with lockers (bring your own padlock), a family changing room that can also be used by disabled visitors, and a pool hoist. Children must be over 10 and able to swim to bathe on their own; younger children and non-swimmers must be under the continuous supervision of a swimming-capable adult over 18. Opening hours are published week by week, so check the city's page before you go. All the swimming pools run by the City of Oslo share the same ticket prices, and the price list is on the council's pages. Children under three get in free, as do companions with a companion card. If you are coming in without swimming, you still need a ticket. Note that children from the age of seven cannot follow a parent into the changing room for the opposite sex.
