The municipality, in figures
The municipality
Skanderborg is a very large municipality measuring 28 by 29 kilometres. With 65.205 inhabitants it is of medium density (143 per square kilometre). Within its boundaries there are 6 protected areas, including Lillering Skov, Stjær Skov, Tåstrup Sø og Tåstrup Mose. There, the rules on permitted uses are set by each area's own plan. It borders 10 municipalities, and the answer may change on crossing any of those lines.

- El Derecho danés no tipifica a escala estatal el hecho de dormir dentro del vehículo con todo recogido: ni la færdselsloven, ni la naturbeskyttelsesloven, ni la sommerhusloven, ni el reglamento de acceso a la naturaleza contienen precepto alguno que prohíba, autorice o someta a plazo la pernocta a bordo de una autocaravana o de una caravana.
- Para la ley de circulación el estacionamiento es cualquier colocación de un vehículo «med eller uden fører», con conductor o sin él (færdselsloven § 2, nr. 18): que haya ocupantes durmiendo dentro no cambia la calificación jurídica del hecho, que sigue siendo estacionamiento y no acampada.
- El único cuerpo normativo estatal que nombra la estancia nocturna con autocaravana es el campingreglementet, y lo hace para definir qué es un camping: un terreno arrendado o subarrendado con carácter profesional, o por más de seis semanas al año, para estancias de día y de noche en unidades de camping, entre las que se cuentan expresamente las autocaravanas (§ 1, stk. 2 y stk. 3).

Where the line lies between parking, sleeping and camping
camping · Denmark
Camping is forbidden outside a campsite or designated zone. What changes from one country to another is which gesture crosses the line:
- The law does not prohibit camping throughout the country: it prohibits placing «campingvogne og lignende» (caravans and the like) in specific strips that cover a great deal of territory: the dune areas protected by klitfredning (§ 8), within 150 m of protected lakes and rivers (§ 16) and within 300 m of forests (§ 17).
- On beaches and coasts access is on foot, with «kortvarigt ophold» (short stay) and bathing (§ 22): overnight stays are not part of that right of access.
- Outside those strips, camping on private land requires the owner's permission; the access regulation (BEK 852/2016) also prohibits «opstille telte og lign.» on the land it regulates.
