Playgrounds in Aarhus
Enjoy a day outdoors and let the kids run wild at one of Aarhus' many fun, slightly wild and challenging playgrounds. Below you can get a small taster of what awaits children and childish souls at the city's playgrounds.
The Globe playground at Dokk1
In the centre of Aarhus you'll find the playground Kloden, located on the first floor of Dokk1's large outdoor deck. Here you'll find five play areas, one for each continent. Here, children can follow a play route that connects the play figures with clues, drawings, messages, hints and symbols. The globe engages both the imagination and the body. The large figures are easy to read and full of great stories for children to explore and challenge. The playground is a place to return to again and again.
