Forest Village is Camp Adventure's glamping area in the forest of Gisselfeld Kloster near Rønnede, where overnight stays are combined with access to the award-winning Forest Tower. The area's Forest Yurts are inspired by traditional Mongolian yurts and offer modern comfort with year-round heating, a private terrace, a large hot tub and a glass dome above the bed for stargazing. In addition to the yurts, there are Valley Cabins positioned on the edge of the valley, Lakeside Lodges by the lake, The Hut — a small house for two — and Greenwood Cottage, which accommodates larger groups of up to 14 people. The tents and cabins are insulated and heated and can be booked year-round.

On a hillock near Kragenæs on the island of Lolland, 12 monumental stone sculptures rise in a circle 40 metres in diameter. Each basalt monument stands 7–9 metres tall and weighs 25–45 tonnes, with the top carved as a face gazing inward toward the centre of the circle. The artwork — Dodekalitten — is a collaboration between sculptor Thomas Kadziola and composer Gunner Møller Pedersen, and it is also a sound installation: each stone emits its own tone, which varies with wind and light. The narrative starting point is one of history's great natural catastrophes: when the Mediterranean, around 7,500 years ago, broke through the Bosphorus Strait and flooded the Black Sea and the advanced agricultural civilisation on its shores — an event thought to underlie the myth of the Great Flood. The project began in 2010 with the first stone placed in 2012 and is now complete with all 12 sculptures in place. The site is freely accessible all year round.

Maribo Miniby is a miniature park that recreates Maribo's old town district as it looked in the period approximately 1850–1900. The park contains around 60 handmade buildings constructed at 1:10 scale — merchant farms, the old town hall from 1857, the town's first hospital and much more — all built from the same materials as the originals, down to miniature bricks and roof tiles. Behind the project stands a volunteer association that began work in 1995, and the park opened to the public in 2011. One of the largest ongoing construction projects is a model of Maribo Cathedral. A living cultural project that provides a detailed insight into 19th-century market town life.
