About Kalundborg forest

Kalundborg forest is located on the Northwestern coast of Denmark’s largest island, Zealand, just about an hour's drive from Copenhagen.
As the land previously was used for agriculture and we’ve only recently planted our first saplings the forest management plan for Kalundborg forest is thought through for the next 219 years.
There is a pre-historic memorial site from the stone age on the neighbouring land, so a small area of our land is protected, which we'll leave untouched so the flower meadow can blossom and provide food for our vital pollinators.
