Rejsidanmark's recommendation: how to use Kragerup as a base
Kragerup Gods functions best as a destination in itself, not just as an accommodation. A romantic weekend begins with arrival on Friday afternoon, a walk on the estate's fields, and dinner at Restaurant Blixen. Saturday is spent at the activity park, and the afternoon can be used for a short trip to Sorø Abbey Church or Kalundborg. Sunday morning with a quiet breakfast before departure is the natural conclusion.
Families with children get the most out of a full day at the activity park combined with an overnight stay, so the children can go through all the courses without time pressure. Company groups should reserve the vault cellar for tonight's dinner and combine it with a team activity in the park in the afternoon.
Rejsidanmark recommends that Plan your weekend trip to Denmark with Kragerup as a anchor point and build a route from the estate to the nearby historical sites to get the full benefit of West Zealand
