Warning for lakes with weak ice in Jönköping

Winter weather changes quickly between cold and mild conditions, which can make ice weak and unreliable. The load-bearing capacity of ice can change quickly and is difficult to assess. There is a high risk of falling through.

Anyone considering venturing out onto the ice must be knowledgeable and have the right equipment. Ice picks, ice spikes, and a rescue rope. And most importantly, don't go out alone.
