These hunting rides allowed the King to hunt par force. This form of hunting may seem brutal seen through today\u2019s eyes, but in the 1600s it was the height of fashion, not only in Denmark but in the whole of Europe.<\/p>\n<p>For Christian V, par force hunting was a matter of self-glorification. He wanted to demonstrate that he was a powerful monarch who ruled not only over men but also over animals and the natural environment. This extensive system of rides was an enormous feat of construction, which demonstrated both impressive engineering and \u2013 not least \u2013 the king\u2019s power and wealth.<\/p>\n<p>The king played the most important role during the par force hunt. It was he who hosted the hunt, in which mounted hunters with hounds chased a selected stag for hours on end. And it was the king who ended the quarry\u2019s life, concluding the chase by thrusting a spear or a short hunting sword into the deer\u2019s heart.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column el_class=&#8221;fullwidth&#8221;][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/Rn2f3WzGHic&#8221; el_aspect=&#8221;235&#8243; align=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] The history Many miles of old hunting rides criss-cross Gribskov Forest, the Great Deer Park and J\u00e6gersborg Deer Park and Enclosure.
