This is how we realize Denmark’s Outdoor Capital
The Masterplan for the Outdoor Capital of Denmark
The master plan sets the direction for Silkeborg Municipality's work to develop Denmark's Outdoor Capital.

The figure describes seven selected levels of the holistic 360° approach in Denmark's Outdoor Capital.
A master plan for many levels
The Outdoor Masterplan describes how Silkeborg Municipality will work to strengthen its position as Denmark's Outdoor Capital by involving all levels of society.
An insight based on the fact that shortly after the appointment it became clear to the stakeholder group that outdoor can help strengthen efforts in a wide range of important health and welfare-related areas. The idea of a 360 degree holistic model was born and formulated in the form of the Masterplan.
