Local tips

- Stop by the Maribo Open-Air Museum for insight into Lolland’s rural traditions—often quieter than the main Maribo attractions.

- Check for occasional ranger-led tours in English, especially during peak holiday periods.
Getting There
-
Walking
From Maribo’s central square, it’s a leisurely stroll through the historic streets, with the park’s woodland edge unfolding just beyond the town’s charming church spires. In good weather, wide pathways and signposted trails invite walkers of all abilities. Expect a walk of about 10–20 minutes depending on your chosen entry point.
-
Public Transport
Buses arriving at Maribo’s main station place you within easy reach of the nature park. From the station, an easy walk through the heart of town leads towards the lakeshore. Regional bus tickets within Lolland-Falster typically cost 24–36 DKK, with parkland visible even before you reach the center.
-
Taxi
A taxi from anywhere in Maribo or the nearby Lolland towns offers direct access to the park’s main visitor spots; the ride usually takes under 10 minutes within Maribo itself, costing around 70–120 DKK depending on traffic and pickup point. Taxis can drop you near the open-air museum or by the lakeshore.
-
Car
Parking areas are situated at key trailheads and visitor points surrounding the park. Many are free, although some may have limited capacity during weekends or holidays. There are no tolls, but note that parking near the busiest lakeside sites can sometimes fill quickly on sunny days.
