The Forest

‘The Way through the Woods’ by Rudyard Kipling:

“They shut the road through the woods
Seventy years ago.
Weather and rain have undone it again,
And now you would never know
There was once a road through the woods
Before they planted the trees.
It is underneath the coppice and heath,
And the thin anemones …”

The forests are the most used leisure facilities in Denmark. 90 percent of all adult Danes go for a walk in the forest at least once a year * ❤️

      • It does seem spooky at first, but in the end the forest turns out to be a really nice place with nice inhabitants. It’s very, very different from the off-the-shelf horror-forest movies. Actually that’s part of the allure, but if I say more I’ll spoil the experience…
