Go treasure hunting

If you need a fun and different experience for the whole family in Odense, it is obvious to go on a treasure hunt with Odense Aafart. ‘Theodors Secret Gold Treasure‘ is perfect for families with children.

The treasure hunt is intended for children aged 4 – 11 years and lasts approximately one hour.

 

Pedal boat or canoe

If you have slightly older children, it is a good idea to rent a canoe or a pedal boat from Odense Aafart. Here you will cycle and paddle on Odense’s beautiful, fantastic and adventurous river. It is a true nature experience to be out in the middle of the stream.

If you rent a canoe, you can choose between six different routes that have different levels of difficulty. On Odense Aafart’s Canoe Rental website, you can read more about the different routes and their degrees of difficulty. If canoes are not your thing, you can rent a pedalo and bring a picnic basket.
