    Dejligt sted og hunden elsker at være der. Mangler bare nogle flere hunde. Et KÆMPE minus. HUSK at hold din hund i snor, da folk til tider bruger p-pladsen. Som WC 🤬😡 FØJ!!!!!

    Rigtig dejlig stor hundeskov. Kan dog godt være lidt sumpet så husk fodtøjet derefter plus at hunden må blive våd/beskidt

    Der er rimelig god plads, og terrænet variere rigtigt fint. Grunden til den kun får 3 stjerner er på grund af den utroligt våde område den ligger i. I det det selvfølgelig er en mose.
