“Unlike other camping sites in Denmark, we offer campers a chance to combine their holiday with activities and sociable events – it’s even possible for groups to book Løgballe for parties and big meet-ups,” explains Anker Olsen. Together with his wife Jytte they are now entering their sixth season at Løgballe Camping, still eager to explore the many opportunities camping
offers. Apart from tents and caravans, guests can rent huts at Løgballe Camping. “For those who wish to spice up their stay a bit, we offer different creative workshops such as jewellery-making and painting, we even go bicycling and hiking at times,” says Anker Olsen. Year after year, they create a community fuelled
by togetherness. With offers ranging from singing to fun activities for children and grandparents, families can enjoy all aspects of their holiday without worrying about getting bored. “Our approach has proven a great success, which is why we are now offering a three-week højskole-camping program, combining the Danish højskole-ethos with the freedom of being on a campsite,” reveals Olsen, whose idea is an entirely new concept, consisting of interesting talks and activities as well as a chance to form new friendships. So whether you seek an life-changing camp experience or just a naturally striking location for an active holiday, Løgballe Camping delivers.

A campsite where land and sea collide Stubbekøbing Camping lies in picturesque surroundings, perfectly situated in the heart of Fredens Forest with only a few metres separating the edge of the campsite and the stunning sea, facing the bridges of Grønsund, Bogø, and Farø. Enjoy the close proximity to Stubbekøbing, Denmark’s oldest market town, or drive off to nearby attractions. This is a holiday-experience that links land with sea, and town with city.

“Stubbekøbing Camping has the ideal location. Despite being in a secluded natural setting, it’s easy to reach the motorway and drive to Copenhagen,” explains Benny Sydel, who bought the campsite in 2014 after falling in love with the immense beauty of the area. This is the kind of place where you can just lie down on the grass, close your eyes and listen to the sounds of
birds and the splashing waves, whilst soaking up the sun. Spend the summer relaxing at the campsite’s own family-friendly beach, go fishing, or drive to Marienlyst’s sandy dunes. You can even walk from the campsite to Stubbekøbing Anlæg, a green oasis with a heart-shaped lake and a little playground. “This is without a doubt the best located camp-
site in Denmark. The combination of being just a stroll away from a historic market town, yet living in rural surroundings, makes Stubbekøbing Camping the perfect fit. We are even close to the Crocodile Zoo,” says Sydel. However, if you don’t fancy driving, the sea offers a fresh alternative. Bogø, one of the local islands, is yet another bonus for the guests. Visitors can simply walk into town where the little harbour’s ferry, Ida, regularly takes people to Bogø’s shores. “Stubbekøbing Camping caters to everyone. Whether you want to enjoy the green woodlands or seek thrilling adventures elsewhere, it’s all within easy reach,” concludes Sydel. A visit to Stubbekøbing Camping is a diverse experience with endless possibilities.
