The farm and riding center
Educational feeding time and guided horseback riding
Get a sniff of life out in the country and let the children get close to the farm animals, which include rabbits, goats, pigs, donkeys and fallow deer. The idyllic farm is just a short walk away through the dunes.
On the daily rounds in which the animals are fed, the kids can help milk the cow and collect eggs from the hens. Otherwise, there’s a chance to play freely on the animals’ terms throughout the day. In Madam Blås Køkken, coffee, cakes and dough that can be used to make twist bread over the campfire are all available.
At the riding centre the youngest members of the family can go for a guided walk on one of the small Shetland ponies. If you wish to take the next step up, you can choose a guided riding trip on an Icelandic horse. The Icelandic horse has gentle, comfortable movements, and its characteristic gait, ‘tölt’, makes the ride a good experience – also for novices. The trip runs along the North Sea coast and through beautiful inland dunes.
Resident guests has FREE access to the animal farm
