Denmark’s Outdoor Capital
The shared vision for the Outdoor Capital of Denmark
The location of Silkeborg in the middle of an area with lakes, rivers and forests provides an opportunity to explore the integration of the outdoors and outdoor activities in interaction with the core mission and policies of the municipality. Because we know that access to nature and the wide range of possible outdoor activities meets a core human need and has a wide range of benefits.
In Silkeborg we developed a masterplan on "How to realize the Outdoor Capital". With a holistic 360 approach, we bring nature into the picture wherever we see new opportunities for the development of whole communities on a local, national or international level.
This is how we realize Denmark’s Outdoor Capital
Since 2017, the master plan for Denmark’s Outdoor Capital has set the direction for Silkeborg’s unique 360-degree approach.
