Grøndal centeret
Grøndalscentret is a huge indoor sports complex, one of the largest in Northern Europe. Go for a good game of squash or bowling, do some swings in the gulf simulator or at the fencing operator, or a work out in the fitness center. And wind down in the cafe after wards. It is quite close to the Youth Hostel and Camping grounds.
Folkets Hus
Along with the newly renovated park in front of the house, the place is a product of the squatting movement from the 80s, and still carries some of the spirit of the old days. Go here for a cup of coffee, discussions, lectures, concerts or parties with left-wing peers. Or simply ooze or have a barbecue in the nice park in front of the house.

Ungdomshuset Dortheavej
When authorities decided to clear out Ungdomshuset Jagtvej 69 on Nørrebro, it ended up in an Orwellian nightmare, with widespread riots that trashed the whole neighborhood.
