Dear all,     
 
DECEMBER IS HERE! - and with lots of snow (not that common in Denmark, belive it or not). 
 
I hope you all find events below you would like to join - also if you do not celebrate Christmas, remember many of them are also networking oppotunities! 
 
For those of you that do, I wish you all a merry Christmas and a appy New Year! 
 
Hope to see many of you at the Christmas Party on the 10th - otherwise in the new year 🎉
 
Kind Regards Louise

Are you ready for a magical Christmas adventure?

Take your family on a real Christmas adventure from December 1st in Dyrehaven in Vejle.
 
Here you can use the free Natureventyr app and walk around the forest from chapter to chapter.

All you have to do is:
- Download the Natureventyr app
- Put on good footwear
- Head towards Dyrehaven (the Deer Park)

The app then guides you through the route, which consists of a rescue mission. Because Rudolph has disappeared in a terrible snowstorm and he was last seen in the Deer Park in Vejle!
 
(Remember to show consideration for the animals along the way.)
 

In addition to the Christmas adventure, there are six other nature adventures available in Vejle Municipality; Hastrup Lake and Plantation, Gødding Forest, Rørbæk Lake, Vingsted Iron Age Environment, Holtser Hage and Vindelev.
