Midtgård

Midtgård is a farm with a variety of animals and many activities for children. Visitors range from kindergartens and schools, to clubs and families. You are welcome to observe the animals, have a picnic, take a walk in the forest and use the building facilities.

What you can experience

At Midtgård you can see farm animals such as horses, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, ducks and geese. During the first months of the year, lambs, kids and piglets are born and, in the spring, you can see them frolicking around playfully.

In the summer months, the cows are outside in the meadows and you can meet the piebald landrace pigs who love a good mud bath.

In Midtgård’s garden, you can find a lovely spot where you can enjoy your picnic, or go for a walk in the 1000-year forest, which is divided into different time zones.  The trees in each zone demonstrate which species were dominant in the Danish countryside during the various time periods.

Tips and tricks

If you want to be more active, with a little sweat on your brow, make use of the of the different tools that Midtgård’s carpenters have built in the 1000-year forest.

You can also follow the path marked in green which starts at the farmyard and follow the signs around the 6.5 km long Energy path.

There are plenty of benches and tables set up in the green surroundings of Midtgård, and behind the garden, there is a barbecue/campfire area.
