- Sønderborg is everything we dreamt of
Anne and Fabian Pattberg have known Sønderborg for a long time, and when the German couple longed for more nature and better living conditions, they decided to move 600 km north to the town centre.
The options for active leisure in Sønderborg are almost endless.
Sønderborg is surrounded by nature, and there are plenty of opportunities to get out and enjoy it. Take the family to the ice rink in winter or the nature playground in summer, hike on Gendarmstien, or go birdwatching or kayaking. With more than 250 kilometres of coastline, forests, lakes and nature trails, the options are almost endless – both on land and at sea.

The Perruchot family are living the dream in Sønderborg
Adapting to Danish culture has not always been easy, but for this French family, life in Sønderborg has nevertheless led to greater well-being and a better work-life balance. Today, they would think long and hard if they were offered the chance to move their home and career away from Sønderborg.
Stine and Nicolaj have moved back to Sønderborg
It wasn’t Sønderborg’s beautiful nature that made the difference to married couple Stine Paulsen and Nicolaj Gottlieb. They already lived in the scenic Virum, with its easy access to lakes and forests. They love Sønderborg’s unique coastal landscape now that they live here, but that wasn’t what clinched the deal either. What made them sell their terraced house in Virum and move back to Sønderborg, where they both grew up, was the quality of life and the opportunity to commute and be close to family, not to mention the slower pace of life and the opportunity to be more present.
