Simbadets Camping

Welcome to Simbadets Camping, a charming little campsite in Österbybruk Uppland just four miles north of Uppsala.

The site is idyllically located between Stordammen and Oppdammen and offers a perfect combination of nature and amenities. Here you can enjoy a swimming area with a 10-metre high diving tower, long bathing jetties and a sandy beach for relaxing days by the water.

The campsite has more than 30 electric pitches for caravans and motorhomes, as well as simple overnight cabins without running water, but close to the water.

Showers and toilets are available in the service building. At the moment the building is partly under renovation after a water leak, so the kitchen and the disabled toilet are not currently in use.

For cooking and washing up, visitors can use the Brewhouse in the centre of the campsite, and drinking water is available at both the Brewhouse and the Sauna Hut.

Our facilities are kept clean and fresh with regular cleaning, and to maintain this, there is a forestry restriction in the service building.

Simbadets Camping not only offers fantastic nature activities but is also close to the centre of Österbybruk. Within a short walk you can reach a pharmacy, Coop, Ica and various restaurants and shops.

The area is rich in culture and history, and the square has pizzerias, a bakery and an ice cream parlour.

The manor house area, just a five-minute walk from the campsite, offers a variety of attractions such as the orangery garden, a second-hand shop, antique shops and a carriage museum.

For those interested in culture, there are also cafés, an inn and the possibility of guided tours of the manor house and the poppy forge.

The more adventurous can book a guided via ferrata down into the old mine from the 16th century. This involves climbing down a cable 80 metres underground and experiencing a completely unique environment.

Check-in at the camping pitches is from 13:00 and the chalets from 15:00, with check-out by 12:00 for both.
