Description
Multiparken Helsingør (MPH) is Denmark’s largest skatepark. The park has everything from bowls to ledges and is divided into different levels which promote growth and challenge the skaters. The park is made of concrete and steel in order to ensure the vitality of the park. Furthermore, the park has an office for the volunteers who run the park and a café that sells both foods and drinks. The park also has an outdoor music centre to create the right atmosphere and good lighting at nighttime.
The street course of Multiparken is a mixed blessing even though it provides a great example as to how a skatepark can combine architecture and skate obstacles. The park suffers from having a lot of staircases and an uneven foundation. The stairs can seem like heaven or hell depending on the skater’s preferences. The street course can challenge even the most experienced skaters, if he wants to take advantage of it.
However, the street course has a fatal error and that is the foundation. The foundation of the park, except for the stairs, is made of large concrete flagstones, which makes the foundation uneven at times and make it not fun to skate on. In some places, the stones are rocking or even broken. However, when looking at the big picture, it is a minor detail.
The park offers a lot of ledges, rails and banks. The sky is the limit when it comes to being creative at this park. Because of the size of the park,, it is almost always possible to find lines or a specific spot for a ‘private’ session. In addition, the street course can challenge technically skilled skaters with it’s crooked angles, ledges and at times peculiar construction style.
Helsingør Multipark’s concrete bowl is by far the biggest attraction of the park. The park follows a circular patterns and offers challenges to skaters of all levels. The bowl has both a skate pit, an oververt and a drop-in. Furthermore, the bowl is built in a way that makes it possible to divide it into three different levels that can be skated independently so that all skaters will have the greatest possible experience.
The first part of the beginner’s level is about 1.5 metres high and ends in a skate pit which makes it easy for skaters to keep to one end of the bowl if they want.
The second part is a little deeper, about 2,5 metres. Here, you will also find the over overt. It is possible to make larger airs and higher grinds and to gain more speed.
The third and last part of the bowl is a deep, almost segregated bowl which measures up to 4 metres. This is for the very experiences skaters.
Generally, the concrete bowl of Helsingør Multipark is worth a visit – even you have to travel far to get there.
There are a lot of events at Multiparken. In the summer of 2013, Helsingør hosted the Danish national scooter championship. In addition, the park is home for countless free concerts during the summer.
Helsingør Multipark was built as a part of an integration debate in the local community. Helsingør is well-known for its diversity and the park is an attempt to build a bridge between ethnic groups and furthermore to reduce the local crime rate by building interests in the sports instead. Overall, the goal of the park is to help create more tolerance and understanding when it comes to different cultures in the community.
Helsingør has found it important to support its youth and their interests as street culture gains a footing in Danish culture, especially in the youth culture. The park’s purpose is to embrace all aspects of street culture, including skating, parkour, graffiti and music

10 reviews of Helsingør Skatepark
One of the best skateparks I’ve skated in Denmark! I give it 5 out of 5 stars!
Seriously awesome skatepark!
Cool Skatepark!
Nice park with a lot of different things, you can ride both street and bowl 🙂
Really good park, and the best thing is. It dries so quickly when it has been raining, så the weather doesn’t effect it that much.
For now, the most awesome bowl park in DK. There is no place better in Denmark, it has to be tried!!!! Love that place!
Yep! Here it is!
Without a doubt the best skatepark i have been to date within the Danish borders. It has a lot of what the heart wants. There is food, music, parkour area, basket, soccer and most of all an awesome concrete Skatepark.
A super awesome skateboard park with cool volunteers and opportunity for pool and bowl skating, sublimely built and well thought and carried out. Unfortunately, the park is filled to the brim with small kids and even their crazy adults on scooters, so it pretty impossible on a weekend to skate there without ending in a clash with the first small kids on scooters and after that their coffee-drinking parents. When a group of scooterkids began to throw candy and rock after my son while he was riding the pool, we decided to leave the park and skatesession. A super awesome park, but I would recommend to skate in weekdays and outside school holidays.
Super awesome skatepark, the bowl is insane and well made. There is both an opportunity to ride flyout, miniramp and bowl in the bowl. the Street is also cool, but boring that they laid tiles instead of concrete or asphalt. But a cool park
Mega Mega nice park. I have to boys on 4 and 6 years who are completely bidden by scooter after they have been there. There is room for all sorts of wheels and children as well as adults in all ages. And everyone are good at watching out for each other also when they fall and get injured.
