Munke Mose & Odense River Boats
Munke Mose
A riverside park on the edge of the Old Town. In summer you can take a boat along the Odense River to Funen Village and the zoo, making it the most relaxing green space in the city.
Munke Mose is a city park along the Odense River, with lawns, ponds, wooden bridges and a children's playground. In summer, locals picnic and go boating here. The park's jetty is the starting point for Odense River boat trips. The boats sail along the tree-lined river south toward the zoo and Fruens Bøg forest, and from there Funen Village is within walking distance. The one-way trip takes about 30 minutes and runs in summer. Entry to the park is free, and boat tickets cost about 60–90 Danish kroner. You can combine the boat with the zoo and Funen Village for a half-day route.
