Bomstadbaden was founded in 1927 and is still run as a family business, which guarantees a good service. This is one of Sweden’s most scenic beaches, also known as the Värmland Riviera. The 400+ meter long sandy beach is known throughout the country for being wonderfully shallow and very child-friendly.

The campsite is the perfect starting point for many nice day trips to other destinations in the county and during the summer there are daily bus trips from the campsite to Karlstad city center.

During July, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, entertainment evenings are organized in our scenic summer restaurant. The restaurant has full beer and wine rights.

There are two fresh service buildings in the area, which include a laundry room, a large kitchen, TV and lounge area, family showers and a relaxation area with a whirlpool and sauna that can be booked through the reception.
