MACHINES FOR CHILDREN

And

THE YOUNG AT HEART

Panzermuseum East is Scandinavia’s largest Cold War museum where the children can try the cool military fitness activities (FUT) or play in the outdoor military vehicles. Nostalgia and a great experience are at their very best on a ride in a veteran train at Vestsjællands Veterantog. Here you will enjoy the landscape while the smoke from the steam engine prickles your nose. Should husbands and fathers also have their part of the fun - don’t miss a visit to Denmark’s Bus Museum or the Tramway Museum Skjol denæsholm.

A Day Full Of Fun

You will find everything you love from the circus world at Arena Cirkusland in its large park, and the amusement park Som merland Sjælland offers more than 60 activities plus the largest outdoor water park on Sealand.

A great destination for a day out for the entire family is Birkegårdens Haver, comprising five gardens, six playgrounds and animals in a pen besides other child friendly activities. And Kragerup Go High offers climbs as high as 28 metres, or ticklings in the stomach while bouncing to your heart’s content in the Trampoline Park Go Bounce.
