​
Brief about Geel Skov dog forest:
Geel Skov is Greater Copenhagen's largest dog forest with fantastic nature and a varied terrain, so here is a real opportunity for some long free-running walks with your dog, if it is under "full control". Lots of other dogs also come here, so the chance of meeting a playmate is good. Be aware that the forest also houses mountain-bike trails, but the forest is so big that there is plenty of room for everyone.
