Design of Parkour park
JIYO tegnede og designede verdens første officielle parkour park “JIYO Parken”. Den blev indviet i Ørestad i København i august 2009. Parken blev lavet i tæt samarbejde med town & Havn.
The park quickly became world-famous. It featured in the documentary "MY PLAYGROUND" (by film director Kaspar Astrup Schrøder). The film toured film festivals around the world.
When you build a parkour park, there is a lot to take into account. Safety must come first. And what is built must actually be usable for parkour.

Understanding a Parkour Park
A parkour park is a safe, stimulating environment, richly equipped with a variety of physical challenges. These challenges are designed to inspire parkour. They range from simple to complex structures and suit many skill levels. A parkour park is a creative playground where everyone can challenge and extend their limits.
The value of a Parkour Park
Creating a Parkour Park in your community can have significant benefits. It provides local children and young people with a positive and engaging leisure environment, and can contribute to strengthening the entire local community. A Parkour Park can be a meeting place for different generations and promote cohesion in your local area.
Safety in a Parkour Park
One of the main focus areas when we talk about a parkour park is safety. It is important to design a parkour park with the safety of all users in mind. It must not, however, compromise the freedom and challenge that parkour offers. Every structure and obstacle is built with safety in mind. We use suitable padding and high-quality materials. Users are also encouraged to develop their techniques gradually. This prevents injuries and ensures they have fun and get the most out of the parkour park.
Safety is also an integral part of our design process. We work closely with the local community, parkour experts and safety consultants. This ensures that every parkour park we develop is both challenging and safe. We also carry out regular maintenance and inspection to maintain a high standard of safety in our parkour parks.
Investing in a parkour park is therefore an investment in physical activity and community. It is also an investment in the safety and well-being of children and young people in your local community. With a parkour park you have a safe and exciting place. Here children and young people can develop their skills, express themselves creatively and build self-confidence.
Unique design creates fantastic opportunities for movement
“Hvis man vil have designet en parkourpark, er det vigtigt at henvende sig til eksperter inden for parkour og freerunning. De har erfaring med parkour design. Ellers risikerer man, at parkourparken er ubrugelig eller i værste fald farlig for dem, der skal bruge den.” [ Martin Coops, Team JIYO ]
Click the video below to see the opening of JIYO Parken, which was inaugurated in August 2009 in Ørestad, Copenhagen. The inauguration of one of the world’s largest parkour facilities was followed closely by media and news channels from all over the world. Here you can get a brief glimpse of the opening day on a warm summer day in August.
When we design parkour parks and facilities, we always make sure to design something unique. Our parkour parks in Denmark and Scandinavia are always designed for the target group the facility is intended for.

Design and development of a Parkour Park
Creating a parkour park is a careful process that requires in-depth understanding and experience. It is essential to design an environment that is both safe and challenging, and that appeals to different age groups and skill levels. We are proud of our many years of experience creating parkour parks. We always involve the local community in the design process. This ensures that the parkour park meets local needs and expectations.
Investment in a Parkour Park
Investing in a Parkour Park is a long-term investment in your community. It is an investment in the health, well-being and development of children and young people. A Parkour Park can transform underutilized or neglected areas into active and vibrant community spaces. It is a strong confirmation to the young people that they are valued and that their activities are important.
