Tables and benches are available by the water and in the sun wall. The cabin has wheelchair access to the cabin itself and to the restrooms. There are marked hiking trails and a lit path in the area. There is a large parking lot on the main road (near the toll booth) and a large parking lot directly at the cabin. There is also a large parking lot in Krusseter (near the kiosk/beach) and a smaller one in Blæsemoen (Route 21).
A beautiful circular trail of approximately 0.8 km leads around the lake. The start/finish is at the cabin.From mid-September to Easter, the hut is open every Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Food and drinks can be purchased at the hut. Weather permitting, the hut is also open during the Christmas and winter holidays.When possible, ice skating rinks are set up on the ice surface in winter. Young and old can enjoy themselves here in good weather.
