The Par Force Hunting Landscape nominated as UNESCO world heritage in 2015, but the hunting landscape has influenced North Sealands forest and culture for a very long time. When King Christian V laid out the Par Force Hunting Landscape at the end of the 1600s, the hunt existed until 1777.

Experience the Par Force hunting landscape as a king
The Par Force hunting landscape is to be experienced by bike - and on two cycling routes, you will be introduced to the areas that make the forests of UNESCO World Heritage.
The Par Force Forests
In North Zealand, the landscape was tamed and shaped on a considerable scale. Lakes, bogs and wetlands were dammed up by stretched roads and slopes were levelled so that you could follow the hunt from central crossings. Read more about the Par Force forests in North Sealand.
Par Force hunting castle in North Zealand
The forests around Frederiksborg and Fredensborg Castle were the mainstay of the Par Force hunt - the splendour and might of the king - And you can see the beautiful castle and palace from which the king rode into the landscape on his quest.
