Discover Grums: Beach Promenade, Church and Nature

Grums offers travellers several points of interest: a four-kilometre beach promenade divided into sections, a free DiscGolfPark in the forest, Grums Church, which is believed on good grounds to have been built in the late 12th century, and a marina that is open seasonally. If you are looking for a hotel in Grums, these features can help you plan your trip around local history, activities or a stay during the marina season. The attractions differ in character and offer different aspects to consider when choosing your destination.

Beach Promenade and Activities

The Grums beach promenade runs from Grums idrottspark to Trulsöns badplats. It is four kilometres long and divided into sections. For planning purposes, the kilometre figure describes the total distance, while the sections divide up the route. You can take both details into account when including the promenade in your daily itinerary.

The free DiscGolfPark is also located at Grums idrottspark: a 9-hole course in the forest. The beach promenade is defined by its length and sections, while the DiscGolfPark is defined by its course format and forest setting. This gives you two different types of activity to choose from: a four-kilometre route divided into sections and a free nine-hole course. Hittaut in Grums is also organised by OK Älgen.

Cycling Routes and Landscape

Sverigeleden, Unionsleden and Vänerleden pass through Grums Municipality. Unlike the beach promenade, with its two named endpoints, this information applies to the municipality as a whole. This distinction is helpful for orientation: here, the reference is to cycling routes in the municipal area; there, to a single four-kilometre route.

The Getgarsudde nature reserve is in the area around Grums. It features rocky shores on Lake Vänern, extensive fields of boulders and a series of beach ridges. These features give the area its own distinctive landscape. If you would like to include the landscape around Lake Vänern in your travel plans, alongside local history and activities, Getgarsudde is a named point of interest in the area.

Church and Local History

There are good grounds for believing that Grums Church was built in the late 12th century. Another defining chapter in its history began with a devastating fire on 18 December 1927. The church was rebuilt afterwards and rededicated on 2 November 1930. These dates combine a well-founded belief about its early history with a precisely dated event in the 20th century. For travellers who take cultural history into account when choosing where to stay, the church offers both an early historical context and a specific story of reconstruction.

Marina on Lake Vänern

The marina, with four guest berths, is located inside the bridge over the E18/E45 at Slottsbrosundet on Lake Vänern. It is open from 1 May to 30 September. Both its location and its clearly defined season are important details for planning. If the marina is part of your travel plans, schedule your visit within this opening period and check the current opening hours in advance.
