Id like to show people that exercise can be easy
and fun and nature is a big part of that. A brisk run
through the woods can do wonders. Theres peace and
quiet, and its the perfect time to reflect while taking
the time to notice the changing of the seasons. And,
once youre out, youll find that the weather is not an
issue. When I spend time with my girlfriends we dont
go to a café we go running, Louise Nørgaard says.
USE WHATS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU
Do something good for yourself and others, because being in
nature is also a perfect way to spend time with friends or family.
Its about sharing experiences together and the joy of being outdoors.

The landscape surrounding Rold Skov and Rebild Bakker attracts many visitors, but theres plenty of room for everyone.
However, in the places where the MTB trails and hiking trails
meet its important to pay attention and follow the rules that
apply to forrest visitors. In the Rebild Bakker National Park
bike riding its not allowed.
WHAT A DIFFERENCE A HI MAKES
We all use the forrest in different ways so its important to be respectful. The forrest is for everyone. If you pass someone walking or running, you
use the bell or another signal and slow down. And of
course, a little hi always goes a long way.
Rold Skov and Rebild Bakker, with their hilly terrains, are perfect for interval and strength training. Use whats right in front
of you jump puddles, train your balance on tree trunks, run up
and down stairs, strengthen your leg muscles using a big stone
or a bench, jump up and down, use a thick branch as a stall bar
there is no end to the possibilities. Remember to also enjoy
the moment and being right here, under the open sky breathe
in the fresh air and look up at the tree crowns its therapeutic.
After a trip to the woods youll come back feeling rejuvenated
and full of energy.
I must admit that Im quite addicted to my daily run
through the amazing landscape in Rold Skov and
the surrounding area, Louise Nørgaard says.
A FIRST-CLASS MTB DESTINATION
Rold Skov is one of the best MTB areas, with its long,
straight gravel roads, challenging MTB trails, and sloping
terrain with steep hills in other words its the perfect place
to get the wheels going, says Nicklas Holm Bols. There are
many MTB riders in the area, so its a great place to meet
likeminded people and be part of a community. MTB is of
course about speed, a high pulse, and the physical challenges, but for me its just as much about being in nature.
On a typical day of training I can cover 120-130 km. For me,
its the perfect way to stay in shape and that feeling of being
free as a bird in nature is unique to this sport. Age-wise there
are more young people, but everyone is welcome. The oldest
in the club is 76, and he is good at keeping up. You just have
to find your own rhythm. We get together across generations,
and its as if all barriers and differences are gone as soon as
we put on our gear and let loose and have fun challenging
each other. Its an awesome sport. I also have to say that Rebild Bakker and Rold Skov are great MTB destinations because of the many races that are arranged throughout the year,
Nicklas says.
