There are many fun outdoor- and indoor activities for children and families with children in Skien. Skien fritidspark is an eldorado for children and families with children. Here you find everything in one place. In winter, the 12,000 square meter outdoor ice rink is very popular. If you get cold, you can warm up either in Cafe Pucken or in the lavos set up around the pitch.
Or you can strap on your skis and go for a walk in the nice lighted and groomed skitrails in the forest areas of the leisure park.
If it is more tempting to be inside, the leisure park has a large indoor water park, as well as a large indoor climbing wall. In summer, you can swing on ziplines in the outdoor climbing park. Otherwise, the leisure park tempts you with curling, ice hockey, padel tennis, frisbee golf, hiking and cycling trails.
Join a mini-cruise on the Telemark Canal. Take a 30-minute trip in one of the canal boats on the stretch between Skien and Løveid locks (in Skien) and experience being lifted 10 meters into the lock chambers at Løveid. Super stretch for families with children.
Or take the children to popular playgrounds with fun playground equipment and constructions. You will find playgrounds at Bryggeparken, at the Herkules shopping centre, in Brekkeparken and Kapitelberget. Just a short walk from the city centre, in Blekebakkveien 5, you will find the city's cinema, Odeon cinema, which has a lot of fun on the poster for children and families with children.
Lørdagsbarn (Saturday children) is a professional cultural offer for children of kindergarten age and in primary school, which is organized at various cultural institutions in Skien.
In the neighboring town of Porsgrunn, the DuVerden Maritime Museum and Science Center is the place for you who are curious and inquisitive. An exciting and very fun place to take the kids to. Here you learn about physics and science in a smart and interesting way. You learn as you play, so to speak.
