Local tips
- Bring water for your dog, as there are no fountains on site.
- Waste bags are available, but it’s wise to carry extras, especially on busy weekends.
- Combine a visit with a walk through the nearby heath or an afternoon at Lakolk Beach—both are dog-friendly.
- The ground can get muddy after rain, so bring a towel for your pet and appropriate footwear.
- If visiting in summer, mornings and late afternoons are quieter and more comfortable for sensitive pets.
Getting There
-
Walking
Starting from Havneby’s central hub—near the ferry port and main shops—you can enjoy an easy 15–25 minute walk along quiet village roads until you reach the edge of the forests marking the entrance to Hundeskoven Vråby. The walk is flat, and you’ll pass a blend of residential houses and fields, making it suitable for families and visitors with dogs. There is no admission fee, and no barriers restrict access for walkers or cyclists.
-
Cycling
Rømø’s well-maintained network of cycle paths connects main island settlements with the park area. From the vicinity of the island’s central supermarket or the Lakolk resort area, it’s a pleasant 10–20 minute ride through woodland and fields. Locking racks are available at the dog park entrance. No bike rental is available at the site, so organize one at your accommodation—rental typically costs DKK 80–110 per day.
-
Driving
There is free parking close to the park entrance, reached via the main approach from Havneby or Rømø’s central villages. During holiday periods, spaces can be limited, especially around midday and weekends. There are no tolls or parking meters.
-
Taxi
Taxis from Havneby’s ferry terminal or central accommodations provide a comfortable, quick route to the park, generally taking 5–10 minutes. Fares for this short journey range from DKK 60–100, depending on demand and company.
