The home of GIS

The GIS headquarters and major education and training center is Hegnegaarden. This is two farms located on the island of Orø, close to the water and beautifully situated amongst fields and forests, just an hour’s drive from Copenhagen Airport. The farm has its own special charm and is an inspiring place to work with people and development. Find your way with Google
