Nymarksminde Farmpark in Vodskov, just outside Aalborg, is a wonderful place to visit for both children and their parents.
Here, you will experience an authentic farm atmosphere and a world full of animals to pet and cuddle. If the scientific studies are right that spending time with animals is good for human well-being, you will return from the park as a new person – or at least filled with lovely memories.
Below, you can read more about what makes Nymarksminde such a popular destination for a day out.
First, take a look at this short video of the park:
The experiences
A selection of the children's favourites at the farm:
Mini zoo
One of the most popular activities at Nymarksminde is the mini zoo. Here, you can meet and pet a variety of animals, including goats, rabbits, pigs, chickens, and much more. The kids love getting up close to the animals and learning more about them – and the experience of watching your child hold a tiny chick for the first time is nothing short of magical.
Play area
Nymarksminde also features a fun play area where children can run around and explore. You'll find a large bouncy cushion, trampolines, playhouses, and much more. It promises hours of entertainment – and is another reason why so many local families with children hold an annual pass to the park.
Tours and events
On weekends, public holidays, and during the summer and autumn school holidays, you can also join a tractor tour. For instance, hop aboard a deer safari where you get to feed the deer, or join the guided tour into Hammer Bakker, where you will learn about the area's history and discover the "dummy tree" hidden in the middle of the woods.
Football golf
One of the activities for older kids (and adults) is football golf. Enjoy a round on the spacious course and challenge your family and friends.
Accommodation and farm stays
If you are planning a holiday in North Jutland and fancy a farm stay or bed & breakfast, Nymarksminde is definitely worth considering.
Besides staying in a charming location with direct access to all the park's animal friends and activities, the farm serves as an excellent base for exploring North Jutland. Centrally situated in the region, with the motorway running right past Vodskov, getting around the entire area is easy.
