About Hørup Skov Hundefold

The dog enclosure in Hørup Skov near Slangerup is a fenced, open area of about 2 hectares without any actual forest. The Danish Nature Agency (Naturstyrelsen) is responsible for the enclosure, which features a table and bench set, approximately 150 metres of solid path, and a parking area by the enclosure.

Your dog is allowed to run free here, but only if you maintain full control over it at all times. This means you can always stop it, it stays in close contact with you, and it leaves other visitors, dogs, and wildlife alone without appearing threatening. If your dog cannot meet these conditions, it must be on a lead or walk at heel. In the event of a conflict, you as the handler are primarily responsible.
