Parks & Nature

Easy to get to by bike or public transport http://naturstyrelsen.dk/publikationer/2008/dec/jaegersborg/ the Deer Park has many well laid out paths and is worth exploring all year round. Curiously it is also home to one of Denmarks oldest amusement parks - nature lovers don't be put off by this - it's not intrusive and can circumvented.
