Randers

Welcome to Randers, the city where I live. The population is about 62500 inhabitants. Randers is known for its beautiful scenery with Gudenåen and Randers Fjord and its long history as a market town.

On this page you will find inspiration and ideas for experiences in Randers and the surrounding area.

Randers Regnskov

Randers Regnskov (Rain forest) is located in the centre of Randers, between Randers City and the river Gudenåen. One of Denmark’s biggest tourist attractions, featuring three different rain forest continents under separate domes; South America, Asia and Africa. A fantastic environment in which you can wander around in a tropical climate between giant liana vines, buttress trees, a roaring waterfall and over 250 animal species.

In all of the domes you will meet animals which lives freely – here it is only possible to see and not touch the animals like monkeys and lemurs. You will also experience animals such as frogs, tortoises, snails and snakes.
