En fantastisk sted for tur og natur nytelse. Trenger mer oppmerksomhet fra miljø etaten!

Beautiful area, nice hosts, good food. O my downside is that it's an old building. Could need a touch up I side.

Meget gode bakevarer, salg av lokal honning og drikkevarer. Veldig trivelig personale og et veldig fint tilbud ved Steinbruvann, Groruddalen.

Liten kafe ved steinbruvannet der du kan få en godbit etter en liten gåtur fra enten Romsås eller Grorud.

Fint turområde med bademuligheter på sommerstid og fine oppkjørte skiløyper på vinterstid
