Camp Adventure Forest Park | EFFEKT architects

Camp Adventure is a new and unique experience destination. A 900 meter boardwalk connected to a 45 meter tall observation tower creates a unique opportunity to take a walk among the trees and experience the stunning nature of the preserved forest from another perspective. The tower and the boardwalk are seamlessly connected by a continuous ramp that makes the forest accessible to all - regardless of their physical condition. 

Camp Adventure is located in the preserved forest, Gisselfeld Klosters Skove, one hour south of Copenhagen, Denmark. The forest is graced with several natural biotopes such as lakes, creeks and wetlands. 

The route through the trees passes gently and sensitively through different varieties of forest, while minimizing the disturbance of the environment. The design of the treetop walk is split into a higher and a lower walkway. The tower and the lower walkway are located in the younger areas whereas the high walkway will pass through the oldest parts of the forest. The high walkway will also feature a series of activities for different user groups to learn and enjoy the forest qualities.

The culminating feature of the walk is the tower and observation deck located 45 meters above the ground. The geometry of the tower is shaped to enhance the visitor experience, shunning the typical cylindrical shape in favor of a curved profile with a slender waist and enlarged base and crown. This does not only increase the stability of the tower but also increase the observation deck area at the top of the tower, while allowing for better contact to the forest canopy.

The new treetop walk and observation tower are part of Camp Adventure, an existing adventure sports facility that includes treetop climbing and aerial zip lines.
