Dog parks in Ikast-Brande Municipality (Ikast-Brande Kommune)

Ikast-Brande Municipality lies in the middle of Jutland in a vast landscape of heath, conifer plantations and quiet lakes. Here you'll find some of Denmark's largest continuous nature areas, with Harrild Hede, Gludsted Plantage and the open expanses around Bølling Sø.

It's a paradise for dog owners who love space, peace and long walks far from traffic.

The municipality has a good handful of woodland dog areas and fenced dog parks spread between Ikast, Brande and the smaller towns. In Skelhøj Plantage by Ikast Byskov and in Hastrup Plantage your dog can stretch its legs in varied woodland terrain, and several places have plenty of room for puppies and training.

A few places offer agility, and there is also a private dog park (for hire) if you want to play in a fenced setting.

Nature is the big attraction, and the heath and plantations in particular invite long walks all year round. At Harrild Hede and Bølling Sø the landscape alternates between heather, birch and pine, while the lake shores offer fresh air and views.

Remember to keep your dog on a lead where signs say so - the heath is home to birds and wildlife that need to be left in peace.
