In the midst of East Jutland's idyllic nature, this welcoming Danish campsite greets you directly on the picturesque Horsens Fjord and not far from the town of the same name. The spacious, flat grassy terrain borders a dense deciduous forest and boasts its own shallow sandy bay with a long swimming pier. Active explorers can look forward to varied cycling tours along the Danish coast, as well as a heated pool under a protective glass roof. Your hosts Dorthe and René recommend simply enjoying the peace and quiet of the fjord in the evening without any fixed plans and experiencing the magical sunset.

PiNCAMP interview with the campsite manager
Exclusive information you won't find anywhere else.
1- How would you describe the atmosphere at your campsite in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening?
The morning begins quietly with the smell of coffee, children heading out to collect fresh bread and nature close at hand. In the afternoon, laughter fills the playground and the pool area comes alive. In the evening, the pace slows as guests barbecue and relax outside their tents, caravans and cabins overlooking Horsens Fjord.
2- Introduce yourself!
We are Dorthe and René, and since buying Horsens City Camping in 2008, the campsite has been our home, workplace and greatest passion. Together with our family and team, we work to create a place where every guest feels welcome. What we love most is seeing the campsite full of life, children playing, families enjoying time together, and guests returning home with happy memories and a desire to come back.
3- Is there a local product guests take home as a souvenir?
A handmade brush, broom or kitchen item from Blindes Arbejde makes for a distinctive and meaningful souvenir. The products are made by blind and visually impaired employees and are designed to be used. It is a small piece of local craftsmanship that combines quality with a special story.
4- Is there anything else you want to tell us?
The most important thing we would like to say is that Horsens City Camping needs to be experienced. Photos and descriptions can show the fjord, the pool and the facilities, but they cannot fully capture the atmosphere. You feel it in the guests’ smiles, the children’s play, the personal contact and the peaceful moments by the water. Combined with nature, tranquillity and memorable experiences, this is what makes camping so special to us.
5- Is there a place where children make new friends especially easily?
The bouncy pillow and the rabbits are natural meeting places where children from many different countries quickly connect. They do not need to speak the same language to jump, laugh, be curious and play together. At the rabbit enclosure, a shared love of animals helps children bond, while the experience makes it easy to find new holiday friends across languages, ages and nationalities.
6- Is there a situation where you repeatedly realize: "this is exactly why we do what we do"?
When guests tell us about the view, the welcoming atmosphere and the members of staff who made a difference, it fills us with happiness and pride. It might be children laughing together on the bouncy pillow, a family visiting the rabbits or guests enjoying the sunset over Horsens Fjord. In those moments, we feel it clearly: this is exactly why we do what we do.
7- Is there a story of the campsites history you enjoy telling your guests?
One story we enjoy telling is how more and more guests have found their way to Horsens City Camping over the years. We are especially delighted when new guests arrive on the recommendation of others, and when families return year after year. In this way, the campsite’s development is closely connected to the people who have spent their holidays here.
8- What is the most spectacular accommodation you have on your site?
Our biggest wow experience and most exclusive accommodation is a modern double cabin with a private outdoor hot tub. The combination of a true camping atmosphere, high comfort and warm water beneath the open sky creates a holiday experience out of the ordinary. Inside, guests will find a modern cabin with a kitchen, bathroom, several sleeping areas and room for the whole family.
9- What is typical of your campsite, but difficult to explain on photos?
What is most typical of our campsite is its relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Photos can show the fjord, the pool and the facilities, but they cannot fully capture the feeling of calm, connection and being on holiday. Birdsong in the morning, activity around the pool and the smell of barbecues in the evening create a special rhythm. It is the combination of nature, community and tranquillity that you only truly experience once you are here.
10- What makes your site different and stand out from other campsites nearby?
We stand out by bringing together views of the fjord, a child-friendly beach, a heated covered pool and a wide range of activities in one place. Children especially love the rabbits, the pool and the play areas, while adults enjoy the natural surroundings, peaceful atmosphere and excellent facilities. The combination of different areas, modern facilities and personal service makes it possible to create a holiday tailored to each family.
11- What should guests not miss—even if it’s not mentioned in any travel guide?
Set aside an evening without excursions or fixed plans. Barbecue at your pitch, let the children continue to play, and take a stroll along the beach or out on the jetty as day slowly turns into evening. It is often in these unplanned moments, with views of the fjord, the sound of the water, and time for one another, that the true camping atmosphere and the best holiday memories arise.
12- Which encounter between guests has stayed particularly memorable for you?
One of the most memorable encounters was between several families whose children first connected by the rabbits and later continued playing together in the pool. Language and nationality quickly became unimportant. Within just a few days, a small holiday community had formed that both the children and adults found difficult to say goodbye to.
13- Which regional food or drink should guests absolutely try?
A classic Danish dish like 'flæsk med persillesovs' is worth a try. Crispy pork belly, potatoes, and creamy parsley sauce are simple Danish food at its best. In Horsens, guests can also find restaurants that serve traditional Danish dishes made from scratch.
14- Which spot on your campsite makes guests say “WOW”?
The most magical spot is where guests can watch the sun set over Horsens Fjord. The colours change across the water as the campsite slowly becomes quiet. It is a simple experience, but one that guests remember and often mention when describing the atmosphere at Horsens City Camping.
15- Which story do children tell when they are back from holiday?
Parents tell us that, once the holiday is over, their children talk most about the rabbits and the pool. The rabbits quickly become little holiday friends that the children look forward to visiting every day. In the pool, hours of splashing, play and fun await. It is often the combination of animals and water play that makes the holiday especially memorable for children.
16- Which strength of your campsite is often underestimated online?
One of our most underestimated strengths online is the combination of personal service and the special atmosphere around the campsite. Through a screen, it is difficult to experience the sense of care, calm and the way guests and staff interact with one another. We are always happy to help with both big and small matters, and many guests only realise during their stay how much the personal contact and relaxed atmosphere add to their holiday.

We had booked a Comfort spot with a view of the water. When we arrived, the spot was completely underwater with 3 cm, making it impossible to set up the bus tent. As an alternative, there was only a spot in the 'quiet' area, very uneven, with almost no grass. After the first short rain shower, everything here was also underwater. Mud alert! Unfortunately, the paths are higher than the pitches everywhere, so no water drains away. The grass hasn't been cut in a long time, and the little clover was very high. No trace of peace - every morning from 8 o'clock, boards were being sawn 20 meters away, styrofoam was being cut, and hammers were being used. Even the complaints of the Danish campers did not lead to any changes. The sanitary facilities are regularly cleaned, everything is top-notch. The swimming pool is small and more suitable for children up to 6 years old. The staff is very friendly. Does not deserve a 4-star rating! No recommendation!

Nice place but run down and moldy

Ralf
The location is nicely situated and everything around it is easy to reach. The whole facility gives a well-groomed impression at first glance. But only at first glance; the showers and toilets are in dire need of renovation, the cabins for rent have also seen their better days long ago. It was very annoying that the lawn mowers were constantly running; even during the so-called lunchtime, the staff and permanent campers were continuously on the move with them. Even the praised swimming pool is rather a larger wading pool. For us, there will be no reunion.

Konrad, K&K
Horsens City Camping, a very nice comfortable campsite! Good, adequate sanitary facilities and mostly clean, depending on the weather. Indoor swimming pool (large pool, for a fee). Reception, kiosk, breadroll service, and other amenities. Very friendly operators and other staff. Beautifully maintained facility with good and friendly support. Child-friendly and dog-friendly. Close to the city (about 6 km); nice bike paths to the city and surrounding areas. We would love to come back here!

The location of the site is genius. View of the fjord, a forest hiking trail just around the corner, and the way to Horsens is also manageable in terms of distance and nicely located. The sanitary facilities are top-notch. The playground is as well. The pool is currently being renovated (covered with a glass roof) and should be finished in the next few days.

We were at the site for a few days at the end of May. The site has a large number of permanent campers who are spread throughout the facility. All the pitches are very well maintained. The entire area, including the lawn and the small beach section in front of the campsite, is spotlessly clean. The sanitary facilities are excellent. The weather matched the good site and spoiled us as well. We can recommend the site without reservation. The site deserves at least one more star.

More info about Horsens City Camping
The well-maintained and modern Horsens City Camping is located on the banks of the picturesque Horsens Fjord. Exciting events, hiking and cycling trails along the estuary in East Jutland and interactive museums make the region and the campsite by the fjord a popular holiday destination for families with children, nature lovers and dog owners. Guests can even try out their windsurfing skills on the private beach at Horsens City Camping.
Four-star camping near the beach
Picturesquely situated between the Horsens Fjord and a deciduous forest, Horsens City Camping covers an area of over 10 hectares. Some of the pitches for campers and motorhomes, of which there are 170 on the entire site, even offer a marvellous view of the estuary. With up to 150m², there is plenty of space for families with children to play and run around on the individual pitches. The campsite also boasts a modern children's playground and creative activities especially for younger guests. A special amenity of the campsite on Horsens Fjord is the private access to a sandy bay with a 40 metre long bathing jetty leading out into the water. As the campsite in Denmark is open all year round, visitors have access to a heated lounge and covered cooking facilities. Guests can also take advantage of the varied sports and leisure programme at Horsens City Camping: The creatively designed mini-golf course is particularly popular with families with children. Brave water rats can take part in windsurfing courses on the Horsens Fjord, while golfers can work on their handicap on the nearby golf course. In the adjoining grocery shop, guests will find everything they need for their daily needs and ingredients for a delicious, home-cooked dinner.
Culture, sport and adventure on the shores of Horsens Fjord
The museums in the town of Horsens are filled with history and stories. Tales of the grand old days are told at the Industrial Museum, which focuses on the development and way of life of the industrialised and affluent society. Children can dress up in costumes from the 1950s and travel back in time. Nowadays a wonderful cycling and hiking trail, once the railway embankment of the Horsens-Silkeborg line: the tour is ideal for excursions with the whole family without any inclines. If, on the other hand, you are drawn to the water, you can take a round trip around the fjord and take the ferry between Snaptun and Alrø at the end. On the last Friday and Saturday in August, Horsens is transformed into a medieval town: knights, jugglers and market criers transform the town centre as part of the European Medieval Festival.
