Søndersø can be explored from several perspectives: the village’s history dates back to around 1100, and there are trails for walking, cycling and running, a sculpture in the townscape, and activities at Søndersø Bypark. A bus connection to Odense may also be important when planning your trip. Consider whether you want your stay to focus mainly on Søndersø or also include a visit to Odense – this will give you a clear direction when choosing where to stay.

Bus connections and trails

Bus route 300A runs from Søndersø to Odense in 20 minutes. Check the current timetable before travelling to make sure the connection works with your planned schedule. Søndersø also has a network of trails with connections to Morud and Langesøskoven. There are four Clover Trails in Søndersø, which can be explored on foot, by bicycle or while running. This lets you plan a trip to Odense and exercise on the trails as different parts of your stay.

Art and history in the town

Søndersø dates back to around 1100 as a village. A later point of reference is Tørne, an iron sculpture by Kurt Tegtmeier. It stands in a roundabout and was installed in 2000 on the road that had previously been the main road between Bogense and Odense. The artwork thus connects a specific date of installation with the road’s former role. The church is also part of the town’s history: in the Middle Ages, it was dedicated to Saint Peter and Saint Paul. Together, these details offer insight into different periods – from the village’s origins to the art installed in 2000.

Activities at Søndersø Bypark

Søndersø Bypark has a large climbing course and a skate park. An obstacle course runs along Carlsvej to the town park. The facilities differ in their layout: the climbing course and skate park are inside the park, while the obstacle course runs along Carlsvej to the park.

Another experience is the activity book “Med Noah og Sofia på eventyr i Søndersø”. It combines reading, play and a walk around town. The book contains three different adventures, with choices determining how the story unfolds. If you enjoy following a story as you walk, this format combines exploring the town with reading and play. You can borrow the physical activity book from Søndersø Library, Odensevej 8, with a library card. Check the local loan conditions in advance.

Walks and seasonal visits

You can walk around Lake Dallund near Søndersø all year round. There is also a rose garden at Dallund. While the lakeside walk is available year-round, check locally for seasonal access to the rose garden before visiting.
