Valbyparken is the second biggest park in Copenhagen. In 2001 natures playground
designed by Landscape Architect Helle Nebelong was opened to the public. The
constructions work was a project for the unemployed.
The playground's most important elements are:
- The original woodland, the new hills and the wide stretch of meadow outside the
playground. - The plan is made up of organically formed elements:
- A large area with sand and gravel
- small green islands,
- winding paths
- a village of woven willow huts and plaited fences
- an area with wild flowers and a very big snail-shaped mound with a path spiralling up it
to a look-out point. - The whole playground is pulled together by a circular 210m wooden bridge, which
"floats" ½ meter above the ground. The planks in the bridge are from the many elm
trees, felled in Copenhagen due to Dutch elm disease.
