During your time at HOLMLAND, you get to participate in one grand adventure during the day. Whether you are an adrenaline junkie or more of a walk-and-talker, we have something just for you.

Hit the water at Aarhus Cable Park. The skilled instructors will help you master the art of wakeboarding. Expect splashes and plenty of “almost had it!” moments, but you will get there. If you prefer, you can also slow things down with a stand-up paddle session.

Afterwards, warm up and relax in the sauna by the water. The perfect balance of thrill and chill.

Bring: Swimwear and whatever you need for showering after.

Experience Aarhus from a different perspective on a guided walk led by someone who’s lived its streets. A formerly homeless person guides this eye-opening tour and offers honest insight into life on the margins of society.

The walk is organized by Gadeliv, a local social initiative that gives vulnerable citizens a voice and a community. Along the way, you’ll pass places connected to the city’s social outreach, and get a closer look at areas like Sydhavnen — a part of town undergoing big changes, where questions of inclusion and urban development go hand in hand.

Note: The walk is in Danish, as the guides do not speak English.

Bring: Comfortable shoes and an open mind.

Step into one of Denmark’s cultural landmarks. With its world-class exhibitions and iconic rainbow panorama crowning the building, ARoS is a must-see (and perhaps a must-see-again).

Wander through nine floors of contemporary and classic art at your own pace, from immersive underground installations to views of the city high above.

Bring: Curiosity and your camera.

Whether you’re new to the game or already have a strong backhand, this activity at the cool Pakhus 77 is open to all levels.

Choose between a fun match or a training session with an instructor. No matter what, you’ll get your heart rate up, have a laugh with your colleagues, and maybe even find your new favorite sport.

Bring: Sports clothes, indoor shoes, and whatever you need for showering after.

Hop aboard our private boat and set sail through Aarhus Harbor, where cranes, construction, and architecture meet the sea breeze.

As we cruise along the waterfront, you’ll learn about the city’s rapidly evolving waterfont, striking new architecture, and how old industrial areas are being transformed into vibrant urban spaces. What better way to take in the changing face of Aarhus?

Bring: A windbreaker.

Get ready for the evening’s party by recharging with a sensory experience combining aromatic aufguss (saunagus) rituals and invigorating cold-water plunges. 

You’ll move through three distinct seances, each featuring different essential oils and guided steam infusions that awaken your senses and calm your mind. Between each session, brave the cold-water dip and feel the endorphin rush — then do it all again.

Bring: Swimwear and whatever you need for showering after.

In the afternoon, we will all meet and unwind at The Canteen, a former floating dock workshop right on the edge of Aarhus Harbor. Chat about your adventures over snacks and drinks, or bop your head to the jazz band.

As day transitions into night, we will share a meal, turn up the music, and dance the night away.
