Disc golf in Denmark

Welcome to Disc Tree's overview of disc golf's development in Denmark. This article presents figures and facts based on data registered by players in Denmark themselves.

Disc golf is a fun and challenging outdoor activity that anyone can enjoy. Over the past few years the sport has exploded in popularity. The growth is due in no small part to the fact that disc golf can be played across all ages, genders and fitness levels. At the same time, new courses are appearing all over the country, making the sport increasingly accessible.

Getting started with disc golf requires very little investment. Most courses in Denmark are free to play, and a starter set of 3 discs can be found for under 200 DKK. There is no need to book a tee time, making disc golf a highly flexible sport that the whole family can enjoy.

This article is based on data that Disc Tree has reviewed from uDisc, the world's leading disc golf app. All figures reflect only registered activity in the app – the actual number of players and rounds is likely higher.

Disc golf courses in Denmark

The growing number of courses is helping to make the sport more accessible to people across Denmark. Disc golf courses typically have 9 or 18 baskets to complete a round. Their location and difficulty can vary greatly, which plays a significant role in determining a course's popularity. In 2025, 202 disc golf courses in Denmark are registered on uDisc.

A course's location, upkeep and size have a significant impact on how frequently it is used. Many disc golf players are happy to travel further to visit the very best courses. Whether a course is free to play also makes a considerable difference.

Rounds of disc golf played

Disc golf has become enormously popular, and the trend is clear when looking at the number of registered rounds. A round of disc golf means completing all the holes on one of the Danish courses. Over 386,000 rounds of disc golf were registered in Denmark in 2025.

Disc golf can be played all year round. Despite being an outdoor activity, many players brave the weather during winter. In 2025, over 55,000 rounds were registered across the three winter months of January, February and December. Most players prefer warmer conditions, however, and the Danish courses are busiest from April to September.

 

Rounds played per month

The busiest months on Denmark's disc golf courses are May and August. In 2025, August is the single busiest month with over 45,500 registered rounds.

Disc golf players in Denmark

Many people play a round of disc golf without logging it, which makes it difficult to get a complete picture of the total number of players in Denmark. Players without a uDisc account are not included in the statistics and therefore represent an unknown figure. In 2025, over 23,000 unique disc golf players in Denmark are registered on uDisc.

The number of disc golf players on Danish courses with a uDisc account is rising markedly. From 2018 to 2025, the number of registered players has increased by more than 2,800%.

On top of this, there is a significant unknown number of players who do not use the uDisc app. The actual number of active disc golf players in Denmark is therefore likely considerably higher than the statistics suggest.

uDisc – The world's leading disc golf app

uDisc is the world's leading disc golf app. With uDisc on your phone you have access to a map of every course in the world. You can also use the app to keep score, track statistics for your rounds, navigate courses and much more.

All graphs and statistics in this article are based on data from uDisc and reflect only the rounds registered in the app. The actual figures may therefore be significantly higher, as many players do not use the app at all, and many uDisc users do not log every round they play. On uDisc's own website you can find a disc golf course near you.
