10 Cool Autumn Activities for Kids of All Ages

BonBon-Land goes all in on Halloween coziness. Here, you can meet trolls, clowns, and a rather gross caretaker in the three haunted houses. The smallest and not-so-brave can visit the little troll house, while the bravest can put their nerves to the test in the Horror Cellar. There's also pumpkin hunting, treasure maps, a new Graveyard Mystery to solve, trick or treating, story time for the little ones - and of course, make-your-own lollipops and loads of rides that tickle your stomach.

GeoCenter Møns Klint is such a place where both children and adults can spend hours exploring - and by the end of the day, everyone has had a blast. Here, you can watch 3D movies about the Cretaceous period's ferocious sea monsters, get wings like a peregrine falcon through virtual reality, see the world from the insects' perspective, cast a mosasaur tooth, experience Denmark's largest volcano erupt, and go on fossil hikes along the beautiful Møns Klint, which will surely blow you away.

Gavnø Castle turns up the coziness for the autumn holiday. Find your way through the spider webs in the Halloween maze, follow the trails around the castle park, and join the big pumpkin treasure hunt. The family's youngest will also love a trip on the new jumping nets in the trees, a swing on the Go Fly climbing trails, and immersing themselves in the creative workshop with pumpkin lanterns and Halloween masks.

Kalvehave Labyrinth Park challenges your sense of direction, logical thinking, and memory. Solve the puzzles and find your way through the many intricate labyrinths. No two labyrinths are the same. Older children will find it super fun to compete against mom and dad, while the little ones need to walk hand in hand and solve the challenges together. From October 15-17, the labyrinth park stays open in the evening, so get your flashlight ready and go on a family expedition in the dark.

Næstved City buzzes with fun and mischief during the autumn holiday. Bring your four-legged friend to a dog race and meet nature and animal enthusiast Sebastian Klein, enjoy children's theater with the Rainbow Beetle, visit the board game café at the library, learn about the UN's climate goals, go on a Halloween candy hunt in the Næstved City shops, and watch a science show with "Kåre & Emil" known from the Big Nerd and Youtube.

Camp Adventure has created a very special universe in the middle of the autumn-clad forest in Southern Zealand. Go on a forest safari with embedded animal bingo and pumpkin hide-and-seek along the two wooden paths leading all the way to the 45-meter-high Forest Tower, which stretches far above the treetops. Keep a close eye on both animals and pumpkins as you move through the forest - there are prizes at stake if you find them all. Afterwards, you can warm up with a cup of hot cocoa and some street food in the delicious food stalls.

Stevns Klint Experience is an experience center that tells the story of one dramatic event that changed the world forever 66 million years ago. See for yourself how the mighty dinosaurs went extinct when the earth was enveloped in dust and darkness following a powerful meteor strike, and meet the small mammal Lucky, who barely survived. During the autumn break, there's also plenty of Halloween atmosphere at Stevns Klint Experience. Come and experience Stevns Klint in a new and terrifying way, as darkness creeps in and the scary Stevns walking stories come to life.

Holmegaard Work is Denmark's center for design and art. Take the kids along and let them try their hand at creative crafts. Blow a glass sphere, sandblast your own glass with terrifying Halloween and autumn motifs, cast your own hand in glass, and go hunting for Stone Age animals in the bog. You can also watch professional glass blowers create large, colorful pumpkins. Children have free admission to the museum.

Øens Dyr Mini Zoo is a true paradise. Here you can get up close with man's furry and scaly friends. Stroke a llama behind the ears, see a real snake, and pat the sweet pet rabbits. Afterwards, it's time to make bread on a stick over a fire. The animal park is located on Masnedø close to Vordingborg, is connected to the mainland by a bridge, and is run by volunteers.

Næstved Automobile Museum is teeming with machines of all kinds. Explore the 3,400 m² collector's museum in Næstved, where cars of older date stand side by side with cool motorcycles, planes, agricultural machinery, and small shops from the 50s – and learn a lot about the vehicles of the past. In total, 175 cars are on display, including old American sedans, fire and police cars.
