Study trips

Brenderup Højskole in the world

We love to travel and be inspired by the culture of the world and take the experiences home to Brenderup.

During long stays at Brenderup Højskole, you can choose to join one of the school’s two study tours.
The two study trips go to Denmark and Africa.

Studietur til marokko

Africa – Morocco

We will live locally and follow the cooking. We are going to the market, in the mountains, out surfing and just let ourselves be carried away by this exciting country.

It’s a chance to travel in a new way, where we dive right into the heart of the culture together with a new group of friends that you brought with you from school.

Studietur til marokko

Denmark – For the autumn Djursland and the spring is not decided yet 

We will experience Denmark in a truly special way. We will stay a local places – at cozy hostels, shelters and ther Folk High schools.

We will also dive into Danish culture and nature. We’ll hike in the Danish “mountains”and see the beautiful historical and artistic cities. It will be a week filled with both grand adventures and small cozy moments.

Village day

Walk in the village where we live, with fields, plantations, and greenhouses.
We go to Ouled Teima (the nearest larger town), where there is a local market. Here you can buy Moroccan clothing, spices, and more.

Self loving day

We drive to Taroudant, a 600-year-old royal city with city walls and a real ‘Morocco vibe’. Here you’ll find a tannery, pottery, and a cozy square.
On the way home, we go to the hammam (the public bathhouse) in Ouled Teima, where we’ll be scrubbed clean.

Surf day

We drive to the Atlantic Ocean to go surfing.
We enjoy the beach with swimming, a dromedary ride, and relaxation.

Local day

We help with the cooking (tagine and bread baking) and see how Argan oil is made. The henna lady comes to make henna decorations – later in the afternoon we visit the local weaver.

Mountain day

We’re going on a trip to the Atlas Mountains. We drive for a couple of hours along increasingly winding roads to Immouzzer. There we meet Ali and take a hike of about 1½ hours through the most beautiful landscape.

Art day

We’re going to spend time with Hicham. He is a trained and practicing artist. Together with him, we’ll draw and do something creative, including at the ‘Crocopark’.

Marrakech

We walk around and explore the city. We end the day at a rooftop restaurant with a beautiful view over the city.

The Danish mountains

Afterwards, we head towards Grobund Djursland, where we will spend the night.

Sustainable communities

We get a tour at Grobund Djursland, so we can see what off-grid living looks like.
Afterwards, we’ll continue working in a workshop. We end the day with cooking at Grobund.

Ebeltoft

We have time to explore the town.
Afterwards, we meet at the Malt Factory, where we’ll have a guided tour.

Mols Bjerge

We hike about 18 km on the first day from our campsite to the next overnight spot. The evenings are spent eating together and enjoying the true folk high school atmosphere around the campfire.

Kalø-etapen

The hike continues – about 20 more kilometers on the Kalø-etapen. We finish at Kalø Castle Ruin.

Sustainable farming

We visit Kalø Organic Agricultural School, where we gain insight into everyday life with sustainable farming and green visions.

Århus

We stay overnight in the city. The day is spent, among other things, visiting ARoS and The Old Town. We also get a guided tour of the street art by graffiti artist Mikkel Jessen, and of course, we get to try our hand at the art ourselves.

Naturen i
tekstil

Vi vil arbejde med uld, sæbe og vand og skabe de fineste skåle, mindre tasker og andet.
Det vil være muligt at arbejde med råuld, f. eks lave sidehynder eller bruge råulden som dekoration på skåle eller tasker.
En anden mulighed er at nålefilte, hvor man evt. kan arbejde med nålefilten som dekoration på den filtede taske.

Billedkunst

Med afsæt i naturen omkring Brenderup Højskole fordyber vi os i at tegne & male. Vi eksperimenterer bl.a. med naturens materialer fra haven for at lave billeder, og prøver at finde frem til dit helt personlige udtryk. Det kræver ingen forkundskaber.

Spørg dit
hjerte

Vi undersøger om man kan bruge hjertet til at bearbejde og forandre ubehagelige, men naturlige følelser som frustration, skam, tristhed, frygt og vrede? Og om vi i hjertet kan mærke en indre sandhed eller intuition, hvormed man kan tage hensigtsmæssige beslutninger.

Natur og 
friluftsliv

Gåtur til den nærliggende skov – opdag nyt i skovbunden – hør fuglene – andre aktiviteter i skoven. Cykletur til stranden – mærk vandet om anklerne – fang en krabbe – find sten med hul. Tænd bål – snitteværksted – bag snobrød – hør en god historie.
